AC Milan travel to Lecce for a Friday night Italian Serie A fixture, with both teams seeking their first win of the season.

The hosts earned a draw in their opening fixture and will look to improve on that in their first home game of the season. However, they often struggle against the Rossoneri, who are expected to come out on top.

Lecce News


Lecce played out a 0-0 draw at Genoa in their opening fixture of the Serie A. It was a drab encounter as they struggled to find their rhythm going forward, finishing without a single attempt on target throughout the contest.

Having gotten a point on the table, the task for Lecce will be to secure their first home win as they return to the Stadio Via del Mare. However, they lost five of their final seven home matches in the league last season but did claim a 2-0 victory over Juve Stabia in the Coppa Italia first round.

Lecce will be keen to channel that performance and have scored in eight of their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, Eusebio Di Francesco's team are without a clean sheet in six of their last seven home matches in the league.

AC Milan News


Massimiliano Allegri’s return to San Siro did not get off to the best start as AC Milan lost 2-1 at home to Cremonese in their opening fixture. Having fought back from a goal down to level before the break, they failed to build on Strahinja Pavlovic’s equaliser and went on to concede the winner.

AC Milan will be keen to move on from that result and focus on their performance in the 2-0 Coppa Italia first-round victory over Bari. The Rossoneri also have a decent record on their travels and won three of their final four Serie A away matches last season. 

AC Milan have looked unconvincing at the back lately and are without a clean sheet in seven of their last 10 matches across all competitions. However, they are often sharp going forward, and Christian Pulisic has scored four times in the last three matches against Lecce. Seven of their last eight away matches in the league have also produced over 2.5 goals. 

Head to Head


AC Milan have only lost once in this fixture, earning 12 wins and seven draws from 20 previous matches against Lecce. The Rossoneri did the double last season, winning 3-0 at home before a 3-2 away victory in the reverse fixture.

Verdict

Neither team has looked their best this season, but AC Milan will come into the clash counting on their fine record against Lecce. Having won four of the last five meetings, the Rossoneri could be backed to claim the upper hand once again.
 
Lecce and AC Milan often serve up open contests and could be set to serve up over 2.5 goals for the fifth straight match. Both teams have scored in four of the last eight meetings, and a repeat is expected here.
