In their last encounter in this competition on August 29, 2025, AC Milan won away with a score of (0-2). At this stadium, the head-to-head record favors the home team, which has 3 victories in the last 3 matches. Indeed, the last time they faced each other at this stadium was on September 23, 2025, in a Coppa Italia match that ended with AC Milan winning (3-0). The goals for that match were scored by Santiago Gimenez (20’), Christian Pulisic (64’), and Christopher Nkunku (51’) for Milan.

Milan Analysis

After 12 wins, 7 draws, and 1 loss, the home team sits in 2nd place with 43 points. In their last match, they won against Como with a score of (1-3), following a draw in the previous game against Fiorentina (1-1). In the last 10 home matches in the league, Milan has recorded 6 wins, 3 draws, and 1 loss, gathering 21 points from a possible 30.

In this competition, they are unbeaten in their last 19 matches. Their attack has been consistently effective, scoring at least one goal in the last 10 matches of this competition. In 20 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times but managed to recover the score in 3 of those games.

Milan enters this match motivated after a victory of 1-3 against Como, thus ending a streak of three consecutive matches without a win in Serie A: the goals were scored by Adrien Rabiot (two) and Christopher Nkunku. The home team typically plays in a 3-4-3 tactical system, with Rafael León and Christian Pulišić being the three most advanced players. In this setup, the playmaker for Milan is Luka Modrić. Absent from this match are Strahinja Pavlović and Santiago Giménez, both dealing with physical issues.

Confirmed lineup: Mike Maignan, Koni De Winter, Davide Bartesaghi, Fikayo Tomori, Matteo Gabbia, Adrien Rabiot, Youssouf Fofana, Luka Modrić, Alexis Saelemaekers, Christopher Nkunku, Rafael León.

Lecce Analysis

The visiting team is currently in 17th place with 17 points, having achieved 4 wins, 5 draws, and 11 losses. In their penultimate match, they lost at home to Parma (1-2). In their last match, they lost away to Inter (1-0). In the league, Lecce has secured 8 points from a possible 27, with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses in their last 9 away games. Their defensive solidity has not been a strong point, having conceded goals in 8 out of their last 10 matches in this competition. In their away games in this competition, there is a tendency for few goals, as in 7 of the last 9 they played, there were less than 3 goals. In 20 matches, they have never managed to turn the score around in the 9 matches where they conceded first.

Lecce enters this match demotivated after a 1-0 defeat against Inter, marking their third consecutive loss in this competition. The away team is expected to employ a 4-3-3 tactical system, aiming to stabilize the game and attack in a more organized manner.

Consequently, it’s anticipated that the visitors will adopt a more defensive posture to avoid conceding the first goal of the match.
