Lecce vs Milan Prediction: the Visitors' Schedule Won't Hurt the Outcome

Prediction for the Serie A Lecce vs Milan match on January 14th. AC Milan lost the Сoppa Italia to Torino and now will play an away match in the national championship against Lecce. Will the Rossoneri recover from the failure? Check the teams’ conditions and expert betting tips. Several betting options are available!

In the previous round, the Yellows and Reds played another quality match - an away one with Spezia, their rival in the fight for survival. They sealed a nil-nil draw. Thus, Lecce has yet to lose in the championship for five consecutive rounds. Moreover, the tie in La Spezia was only the second for Marco Baroni's team in this segment. They defeated Atalanta (2:1), Lazio (2:1), and Sampdoria (2:0) and climbed to 11th place in the standings, 10 points ahead of the relegation zone. There is less and less doubt that the Reds and Yellows will keep their Serie A spot at the end of the season.

While Stefano Pioli's team is having a hard time in the new year. After a 2:1 away win over Salernitana, AC Milan couldn't beat Roma 2:2 at home. The Rossoneri dominated and performed much better than their opponents, leading 2:0. But they conceded two goals in the game's closing stages. Perhaps it was the unfortunate last minutes of the match with Roma that shook Milan's confidence, so on Wednesday, they dropped out of the Coppa Italia, losing to Torino - 0:1 in extra time. Since the 70th minute of the Cup meeting, AC Milan played on power.

Milan has a busy schedule - the meeting with Lecce will be their fourth in ten days. So we won't count on a sure win for the Milan side in the upcoming game, especially since Lecce has been in great form recently and has already managed to beat Lazio in the new year. However, Milan also can't afford to fail here. Stefano Pioli's team has a significant margin of safety, and they earn points regularly in meetings with the average teams and underdogs. And in the game last round against Roma, the Reds and Blacks deserved more than a draw.
