According to what is being reported by this morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport, Pioli should make a couple of changes to the defensive department with Alessandro Florenzi tipped to replace the suspended Davide Calabria at right-back and Pierre Kalulu to come in for Simon Kjaer.
There will also apparently be a change in midfield with Rade Krunic getting a rest and Tommaso Pobega coming in to partner Sandro Tonali, while ahead of them Brahim Diaz should take Ismael Bennacer’s spot.
On the right wing Alexis Saelemaekers is currently the favourite to start, with Rafael Leao on the opposite wing and Ante Rebic down as the striker.
Probable Milan XI (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Florenzi, Kalulu, Tomori, Theo; Tonali, Pobega; Saelemaekers, Diaz, Leao; Rebic.
Probable Lecce XI (4-3-3): Falcone; Gendrey, Baschirotto, Umtiti, Gallo; Blin, Hjulmand, Oudin; Strefezza, Ceesay, Di Francesco.
