Good save by Gabriel as the Lecce keeper denies Leonardo Bonucci's downward header from a corner.

Juventus have come out of the blocks quickly.

Lecce have made a change for the second half with Luca Rossettini on for Jacopo Petriccione.

The Juventus players are out on the pitch a little bit before the Lecce players and are having to content themselves with doing a bit of warming up as Bob Marley's Everything's Gonna Be Alright plays out around the empty stadium.

Eventually, the Lecce players join their opponents on the pitch and we are under way for the second half.

Just the one shot on target for Juventus compared to two for Lecce.

The hosts have been poor in front of goal, but surely that can't continue into the second half?

All square at the break. Lecce started well but have it all to do after Fabio Lucioni was sent off.

Juventus should really be ahead but for some very, very wayward finishing.

The missed chances continue to add up for Juventus as now Matthijs de Ligt heads over from a corner.

Another chance wasted by Juventus! This time Cristiano Ronaldo plays a brilliant ball behind the defence and across the face of goal. It's a tap in for Federico Bernadeschi but he compounds to launch the ball over the bar from all of two yards. Shocking finishing.

Oh how has he not scored that!??

Lecce let Cristiano Ronaldo run free inside the box for a corner and he meets the delivery, unmarked and yards from goal but somehow powers his header high and wide.

Ronaldo falls to the ground and screams in frustration. He knows he should have done better there.

Corner after corner for Juventus as they try to sneak a goal before the break.

Jacopo Petriccione is caught late by Rodrigo Bentancur on the edge of the Juventus box and now the visitors have a decent opportunity with a free kick. The ball is rolled into Brayan Vera's path but he smashes a first-time drive well wide. Wasted.

It is going to be really tough for Lecce to keep out Juventus for almost an hour with just 10 men. A shame after they had done such a good job defensively for the opening 30 minutes.

Big blow for Lecce as they are reduced to 10 men, Fabio Lucioni is sent off!

The defender is the last man as he brings down Rodrigo Bentancur and the referee has no hesitation in flashing the red card his way.

A second shot on target for Lecce as we approach the half hour mark but Andrea Rispoli's low drive is straight at Wojciech Szczesny

Federico Bernardeschi breaks into the box from the right, looks up, spots Cristiano Ronaldo unmarked and stands the ball up for his team-mate beautifully. The Portuguese star has all the time in the world to execute the perfect overhead kick but uncharacteristically makes a mess of it and the ball goes well wide.

Lecce have conceded a league high 60 goals this season but defensively they've been strong so far, limiting the defending champions to just the one shot on goal.

A point will move them out of the bottom three, too. Long way to go, however.

Adrien Rabiot tries to send Federico Bernardeschi away with a ball over the top. Initially it looks like Bernardeschi is in but eventually the flag goes up for offside. Was quite late though.

Juventus are winding up now as Rodrigo Bentancur plants a header from Miralem Pjanic's delivery over before Adrien Rabiot draws a save out of Gabriel in the Lecce goal.

Lecce come forward again as they continue to grow in confidence but they are almost caught out on the counter when a ball into the Juventus box is quickly moved up the other end of the pitch but Rodrigo Bentancur's low ball in for Cristiano Ronaldo is deflected behind for a Juventus corner.

Poor defending by Juventus as Juan Cuadrado's lazy ball is intercepted, gifting Lecce an opportunity, but Marco Mancosu fires straight into Wojciech Szczesny's body.
