Last Saturday was supposed to signal a new era for Milan, as the returning Massimiliano Allegri took charge of his first league game back at the club and new signing Luka Modric made his Serie A bow. 

However, that feel-good factor quickly eroded as the Rossineri suffered a 2-1 home defeat to newly-promoted Cremonese in what was the headline story of the opening weekend. 

That result has already heaped pressure on the veteran boss ahead of just the second week of the campaign and he'll be out to show that matchday one's performance was just a one-off as they visit Lecce on Friday. 

Lecce began their season with a credible goalless draw away at Genoa and will look to repeat that defensive solidity when they welcome Milan.

Lecce vs AC Milan team news 

Lecce

17-year-old Francesco Camarda is set to start in attack for Lecce, who can welcome back Santiago Pierotti from suspension. Gaby Jean and Filip Marchwinski remain long-term absentees. 

Previous XI: Falcone, Viega, Gaspar, Gabriel, Gallo, Coulibaly, Ramadani, Berisha, Banda, Tete Morente, Camarda 

AC Milan 

There is still no Rafael Leao for Milan, who is yet to recover from his calf injury. It means Allegri's men are still short in the attacking department and have been frustrated in their attempts to bolster their frontline in the transfer market. Santiago Gimenez and Christian Pulisic are then most likely to start up front. 

Previous XI: Maignan, Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic, Saelemaekers, Estupinan, Loftus-Cheek, Modric, Fofana, Gimenez, Pulisic 

Lecce vs AC Milan prediction

The opening day defeat will mean this will be a more nervous affair than it needs to be so early into the season for Milan, but the big players should step up to make sure it doesn't happen again. 

Prediction: Lecce 1-2 AC Milan
