Parma, 4 October 2025 – Lecce takes all three points at the Tardini, winning 1-0 thanks to Sottil’s strike in the 38th minute.

The home side tried to press early on, with Bernabé curling a shot just wide. Lecce fired back shortly after: first, a cross-goal effort from Berisha forced Suzuki to tip it behind for a corner, then the decisive moment arrived as Sottil’s driven cross found the corner past the Parma keeper.

In the second half, Parma pushed for an equaliser, but a brilliant save from Falcone on Delprato’s header in the dying moments preserved Lecce’s lead until the final whistle.

Next up for Parma: a trip to face Genoa on Sunday 19 October.
