Lecce seek their first victory in five Serie A games when they welcome off-form Torino to the Stadio Via del Mare in Saturday's round 10 action.
The southern Italy side are four places ahead of the visiting club, incapable of leapfrogging them regardless of this weekend's outcome.
Roberto D'Aversa's team fell behind to Florian Thauvin's 49th-minute penalty, appearing set to lose their third game in Serie A this season before Roberto Piccoli levelled with seven minutes of the 90 left to play.
While the 1-1 draw extends Lecce's winless run to four games, the flow of Monday's game means round nine's result was a point gained rather than two lost.
The Wolves have claimed three victories in five home games, giving them reason for optimism to return to winning ways, even if picking up one point from six quenches that excitement.
A win against Torino could take mid-table Lecce as high as sixth, but that requires several results going their way.
