 Stats BEFORE the game

Milan has triumphed in their last four encounters with Lecce in Serie A, after struggling to secure victories in three of the prior five matches (3 draws); the last occasion the Rossoneri achieved five straight wins against the Giallorossi in this competition was from 1989 to 1993.

Lecce has managed to win just one of their last 28 Serie A games against Milan (11 draws, 16 losses): a 1-0 victory on April 1, 2006, at the Via del Mare, thanks to a goal from Axel Konan.

Milan has claimed victory in 15 out of their 19 home games against Lecce in Serie A, boasting a 79% win rate (3 draws, 1 loss); this is among teams they have faced at home at least the same number of times.

Milan (12 wins, 7 draws) has gone unbeaten for 19 consecutive matches in the same Serie A season for the first time since the stretch between January and May 2004, when Carlo Ancelotti was the coach (19 matches – 15 wins, 4 draws). The Rossoneri have not reached 20 consecutive matches without a loss in the same tournament since the first seven months of the 1992/93 season (the first 23 matches of that season without defeat, under coach Fabio Capello).
