Serie A: Milan vs. Lecce – probable line-ups and where to watch on TV
Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic are expected to lead the Milan attack in a home Serie A match against Lecce this evening.
It kicks off at 20:45 CET (19:45 GMT) at the Stadio Meazza in San Siro in Milan.
Santiago Gimenez is unavailable for the Rossoneri, while Lecce must cope without the suspended Kialonda Gaspar and Danilo Veiga and the injured Medon Berisha and Francesco Camarda.
According to Gazzetta, Luka Modric is favourite over Ardon Jashari, joining Samuele Ricci and Adrien Rabiot in central midfield.
Leao and Pulisic are expected to start up front, according to Sky and Gazzetta.
Strahinja Pavlović is available, but unlikely to feature in the Milan XI after suffering a head injury last week.
Lecce will look to Nikola Štulić up front. Tete Morente and Santiago Pierotti compete for a starting spot on the right wing, while Lameck Banda returns to Lecce’s starting XI after serving a one-game ban in the previous round.
