Juventus will be hoping to earn their third consecutive league victory on Serie A Matchday 12 when they play Lecce at the Stadio Via del Mare on Saturday evening.
The Bianconeri are currently eighth in the table with 19 points and are five points away from the Champions League spots. They defeated city rivals Torino by the solitary goal on Matchday 10 and they earned an emphatic 4-0 win against Empoli in the last round of action.
Meanwhile, the Salentini are 17th in the table with eight points, and they have only won once on their Serie A return, which was away to Salernitana in September. Since then, the club from Apulia have registered just two points in their last four matches and lost 2-0 away to Bologna in their previous league game.
