&lt;p&gt;Lecce won one point in their last three, AC Milan won none. Both squads will be desperate for three points to continue the pursuit of their own personal objectives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Giallorossi, three points above the relegation zone, haven’t won for four matches and after draws to Bologna and Monza, lost to Udinese and Fiorentina. The Rossoneri’s three latest defeats came against Torino, Bologna and Lazio.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HEAD-TO-HEAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan have lost only two of their 37 games against Lecce in Serie A (W22 D13); among the teams they have faced at least 30 times in the top-flight, only against SPAL (97%) do the Rossoneri post a higher percentage of matches without defeat than against Leece (95%).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lecce have won only one home game against AC Milan in Serie A (April 2006 under Roberto Rizzo). In addition, at Lecce’s home, the Rossoneri have won the only game in their history in the top-flight after trailing by three goals: from 3-0 to 3-4 in October 2011.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DID YOU KNOW?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lecce have not scored in their last four Serie A games and could fail to score five matches in a row in a single Serie A campaign for the first time since April 2023. However, Milan have lost by conceding two or more goals in each of their last three league games and only three times in their history have recorded more defeats in a row in the competition with 2+ goals conceded (the last being a run of five, between March and April 1974).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Only Monza (-22) have a worse points difference than AC Milan after the first 27 games played in Serie A compared to the last edition of the competition: the Rossoneri have won just 41 points in Serie A this season, having accumualted 56 in the first 27 games played in 2023/24, with a negative difference of -15.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan are averaging 1.52 points per game in Serie A this season. The last time they recorded a lower average in Serie A was in 2015/16, when the Rossoneri finished the season in seventh place, with 57 points from 38 games (exactly 1.50 points per game).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sérgio Conceição has averaged 1.40 points per game as AC Milan manager in Serie A this season. The previous coach to have averaged less than 1.50 per game with the Rossoneri in Serie A was current Lecce coach Marco Giampaolo (1.29 in 2019/20).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan have collected 16 red cards in all competitions in the last two seasons, at least two more than any other Serie A team in this period (followed by Hellas Verona on 14). Notably, four of these red cards have come in 2025: Yunus Musah against Dinamo Zagreb and Theo Hernández against Feyenoord in the UEFA Champions League, Fikayo Tomori against Empoli and Strahinja Pavlovic in the last round against Lazio in Serie A.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PLAYERS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;AC Milan are the team with which Ante Rebic has played the most games (100) and scored the most goals (27) in his career in the five major European leagues. Against the Rossoneri, he has recorded one win (in April 2016 with Hellas Verona) and one defeat (in the reverse fixture this season) in two previous Serie A matches, without scoring a goal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since his Serie A debut (on 8 February against Empoli), no AC Milan player has completed more dribbles (10, level with Rafael Leão), has won more fouls in the final third (three) and attempted more shots (15) than João Félix in Serie A. Furthermore, excluding defenders, only Youssouf Fofana (15) has regained possession on more occasions than the Portuguese among Milan players during this period (14, level with Yunus Musah and Tijjani Reijnders, but among these three he has played the fewest minutes– 356 minutes).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISCIPLINE&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Suspended: Maignan (Milan)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cautioned: Rafia, Pierotti, Ramadani (Lecce); Musah (Milan)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;REFEREE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DOVERI (DI GIOIA – DI MONTE) IV: MASSIMI VAR: CHIFFI AVAR: MARINI&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UPCOMING MATCHES IN SERIE A&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Genoa-Lecce (Friday 14 March, 18.00 CET)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Milan-Como (Saturday 15 March, 18.00 CET)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Photo Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;
