Malick Thiaw (Heel spur), Tommaso Pobega (Hamstring injury) and Pierre Kalulu (Collateral ligament injury) will not be taking part for AC Milan boss Stefano Pioli. Ruben Loftus-Cheek cannot play in this game through suspension.

It’s our opinion that i Rossoneri look set to use the 4-2-3-1 formation, beginning the first half with Mike Maignan, Davide Calabria, Matteo Gabbia, Fikayo Tomori, Theo Hernandez, Yacine Adli, Tijjani Reijnders, Samuel Chukwueze, Christian Pulisic, Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud.

Lecce manager Luca Gotti has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Jeppe Corfitzen (Inner ligament injury), Mohamed Kaba (Cruciate ligament injury) and Kastriot Dermaku (Cruciate ligament injury) miss out here.

We’re of the thinking that Giallorossi seem likely to play in a 4-3-3 formation using Wladimiro Falcone, Valentin Gendrey, Marin Pongracic, Federico Baschirotto, Antonino Gallo, Alexis Blin, Ylber Ramadani, Joan Gonzalez, Lameck Banda, Nikola Krstovic and Patrick Dorgu.
