Lecce vs AC Milan Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The hosts have not been able to win any of their last three matches against the Milan giants.
Lecce are all set to host AC Milan in match week 28 of the Serie A 2024-25 season. The hosts are in the 16th spot, which is also very close to the relegation zone. They have won six of their 27 league matches this season. The visitors on the other hand are in ninth place after having won 11 games in the same number of matches.
Lecce tasted a defeat in their last Serie A game when they took on Fiorentina. It was a close game where Lecce conceded a goal early but failed to strike back. They will have to be better at attack if they want to stand tall in their next league fixture.
Serie A giants AC Milan are not in the best of forms and are also very far away from sealing a Champions League spot for the coming season. The Milan team tasted a defeat in their last league fixture where they conceded a late goal against Lazio. The visitors will be looking to secure three points and end their winless run.

Players to Watch
Kyle Walker (AC Milan)
The English full-back Kyle Walker is going to play an important role here. He can come up with some plays from the right-hand side to assist his attacking front. Walker has quick feet and knows how to defend well, which AC Milan surely need here. He can also lead the team well.
Nikola Krstovic (Lecce)
The 24-year-old forward is going to play a vital role in the attacking front for Lecce. Nikola Krstovic is the top goal scorer for Lecce in the Serie A this season. He has 10 goal contributions in 27 league games so far and can be a real threat to the opposition’s defence in the upcoming league clash.
