Lecce look to end 7-year wait for a goal against Milan at San Siro
Lecce look to end 7-year wait for a goal against Milan at San Siro Lecce arrive at San Siro carrying a statistical curse that stretches back almost seven years. According to Milannews24 , their last goal against the Rossoneri at the historic ground came on 21 October 2019, when Marco Calderoni’s left-footed strike in the 92nd minute rescued a 2-2 draw in Stefano Pioli’s first match as Milan coach. Nothing since. SASSUOLO, ITALY – MAY 17: Eusebio Di Francesco, Head Coach of US Lecce, looks on prior to the Serie A match between US Sassuolo Calcio and US Lecce at Mapei Stadium Citta del Tricolore on May 17, 2026 in Sassuolo, Italy.

The other side of the city has been no kinder. Against Inter at San Siro , Lecce have lost all four visits without troubling the scoresheet once, meaning nine consecutive trips to the stadium have ended in defeat with a blank. The context makes the task harder still as Milan have been inconsistent under Ruben Amorim and will be keen to put a mediocre start behind them, while home advantage has rarely counted for more against this particular opponent.
