Watch Lecce vs. AC Milan live - prediction & lineups

The Serie A match between Lecce and AC Milan on March 8, 2025, presents a critical juncture for both teams. AC Milan, currently positioned ninth in the league standings, is desperate for a victory after enduring four consecutive winless matches. Their historical dominance over Lecce provides some optimism; however, recent performances have raised concerns about their away form, having lost five of their last six matches. Conversely, Lecce faces its own challenges as they hover around the relegation zone with the league's worst attacking record. This context underscores the significance of this matchup for both clubs' aspirations—Milan seeks European qualification while Lecce fights for survival.

Conceicao has been able to work with the players for a full week for the first time, more or less, and he sounded very positive about the outcome during the presser. Alessandro Florenzi, who had been absent since July last year due to an ACL tear, has even returned to training.

On the other hand, Ruben Loftus-Cheek remains on the injury list while the likes of Mike Maignan and Strahinja Pavlovic will be suspended. Yunus Musah is the only player at risk of receiving a suspension, one yellow card away.

Lecce failed to score for the fourth straight match when they lost 1-0 to Udinese last time out. They will head into this encounter sitting just a place above the drop zone, three points to the good.

That’s not a margin they can consider healthy, especially with their poor run against Milan. I Salentini lost 3-0 in the reverse fixture at San Siro.
