Lecce are playing above all expectations this season. Everyone expected them to be one of the relegation candidates, but Lecce are sitting in the middle of the table with comfortable ten points more than the relegation zone. Lecce are without a loss in the last six league games. In the previous round, they played 0-0 on the road against Spezia. Lecce was probably better in that game, but eventually, the teams split the points.
Lecce have a good defense. They allowed only three goals in the last five Serie A games.
AC Milan were the Italian champions last season, but right now, they are already seven points behind the league leader, Napoli. AC Milan had three games since the World Cup break, and they didn't impress in either. On Wednesday, AC Milan lost 1-0 at home after extra time in Coppa Italia against Torino. The home side dominated, especially after Torino's Koffi Djidji got the red card. AC Milan had 32 shots at the goal, but that was not enough to secure a win.
AC Milan are struggling in the attack lately. They scored only four goals in the last three matches.
Lecce vs AC Milan pick: Lecce to cover AH +1 spread
Lecce are playing surprisingly well this season, especially at the home stadium, where they lost only two of eight Serie A games. Lecce are tough to beat this season, so they could create many problems for Stefano Pioli's side.

Lecce Team News
Lecce will be stronger in the next game. One of their best players, defensive midfielder Morten Hjulmand, should get back into the starting lineup after a yellow card suspension. Hjulmand has played in 15 league matches so far this season, as he is a huge part of what they are doing. Also, Marin Pongracic, Thorir Helgason, and Kastriot Dermaku are all questionable to play because of injuries.
