Milan vs Lecce prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - September 27, 2024
In the sixth round of Serie A, a match between AC Milan and Lecce will take place at San Siro on Friday, September 27. The match is scheduled to kick off at 20:45 Central European Time. This prediction is provided by Dailysports experts.
AC Milan
Milan is trying to get back to winning ways, and Paulo Fonseca seems to have managed to keep his job for now. In their last game, the "Rossoneri" defeated Inter in the Derby della Madonnina for the first time in two and a half years.
This was their second consecutive victory in Serie A, where after five rounds, Milan is the top-scoring team with 11 goals. They are only three points behind the leaders, Torino.
Lecce
Lecce started with two losses, followed by a win over Cagliari. Their last two Serie A matches ended in draws, and they are currently in 16th place.
Lecce’s most recent match was in the Italian Cup, where they lost at home to Serie B side Sassuolo. The team heads into the match against Milan with a low morale.
Match Facts
- Milan has scored in ten consecutive matches, though they have kept a clean sheet in just one of them.
- Lecce has not won in their last three matches.
- Milan averages 2.3 goals per game at home, while Lecce averages just 0.25 goals per game away from home.
Probable Lineups
- Milan: Maignan, Emerson Royal, Gabbia, Tomori, Theo Hernández, Fofana, Reijnders, Loftus-Cheek, Pulisic, Leão, Morata.
- Lecce: Falcone, Gallo, Pejlmar, Gaspard, Baschirotto, Ramadani, Koulibaly, Dorgu, Tete Morente, Rebić, Krstović.
Head-to-Head
The recent meetings between these teams alternate between draws and victories for Milan. Lecce has not triumphed since 2006 and has not won at San Siro since 1997.
Prediction
Lecce shouldn’t pose much of a challenge for the "Rossoneri" given their poor start. Milan, playing at home, should comfortably defeat an opponent of this caliber. My prediction is a Milan win with a -1 goal handicap.
