While sacking Luca Gotti on the back of a 1-1 draw against a tough Empoli side felt like a cruel decision on Lecce’s part, the appointment of Marco Giampaolo has paid off, at least based on early evidence.

Aside from a 1-4 defeat away to Roma, the Southerners have been garnering points, deepening the wounds of the struggling Venezia and Monza with slim wins, and snatching a point in dramatic fashion while hosting Juventus. The Apulians have now climbed to a warm 14th spot in the Serie A table, and they’ll be keen to remain above the drop zone.

While it wasn’t their first defeat of the season, the utter demolition at the hands of Inter was the first time we saw a hapless and broken Lazio since Marco Baroni’s arrival in the summer. Therefore, the the 61-year-old we be hellbent on erasing his image as soon as possible. While beating his former employers Lecce won’t be sufficient, it would be a good start.

The good news for the Biancocelesti is that they still have the full support of their loyal fanbase, especially after displaying brilliant performances in recent weeks against Napoli and Ajax. The Italian capital side currently sits fifth in the standings, on part with 4th-placed Fiorentina, albeit the Tuscans have an extra match in hand.
