Serie A official line-ups: Milan vs. Lecce Christian Pulisic gets his first start of the season, as Milan bring back Luka Modric with Goncalo Ramos and Alexis Saelemaekers, hosting unpredictable Lecce. It kicks off at San Siro at 19.45 UK time (20.45 CEST). You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from today’s five Serie A games on the Liveblog.

The coach was criticised for excessive squad rotation in Wednesday’s game, so returns Modric, Adrien Rabiot and Mario Gila to the starting XI. More importantly, Pulisic gets his first start of the entire season after fitness problems even for the USMNT at the World Cup, supporting Goncalo Ramos with versatile Saelemaekers. Samuel Chukwueze is preferred to Diego Moreira, with Pervis Estupinan on the other wing.
