Serie A | Lecce 1-2 Bologna: First victory for Palladino

Bologna snatched their first victory of the Serie A season with a Riccardo Orsolini scissor-kick volley and Jay Enem, but Lecce had more than a few chances to equalise.

This was a relegation tussle already, but surprisingly one where the Rossoblu were still winless. Raffaele Palladino earned a 1-1 draw with Torino on his debut after replacing sacked Domenico Tedesco, but here missed Samuel Mbangula, Jens Odgaard and long-term absentee Emil Holm.

Matteo Darmian was in the squad for the first time after signing on as a free agent and thrown straight into the starting XI. Lecce had two victories this season against Venezia and Monza, but lost Nikola Stulic and Medon Berisha to injury, with Willem Geubbels and Paco Esteban not at 100 per cent either.
