Reja expects Lecce struggle
Saturday 13 December, 2008

Edy Reja expects his Napoli side to have a tough time against Lecce at the Stadio San Paolo this evening.

The fourth-placed Vesuviani will start as clear favourites against a Lecce side that are yet to win away from home all season.

But Reja is taking nothing for granted and expects the adverse weather conditions to play a part.

“We will find ourselves on a heavy pitch and for a technical team like ours that will be a problem,” the experienced tactician warned.

“It will be a very physical game and we will have to push for an early goal without over-committing ourselves in attack.

“The lads will need to show patience just like they did against Siena.

"This kind of game is tough, but I'm optimistic because the team are in good shape and are training with enthusiasm.”
