It was a relatively poor draw that AC Milan collected at home last weekend against the struggling Lecce. That leaves the Milanese unbeaten in two games. They have earned a W3 D1 L4 record this season in the league and out on the road they have returned a W2 L2 record.They have only come up with an average of a goal per game this season. They have only failed to score in one league fixture this season, netting in each of their last four played.
The defence has failed them recently. Milan have failed to earn a clean sheet in any of their last five games. They have conceded at least two goals in four of the five games in that sequence. AC Milan have lost all four games played against opponents who are currently sitting above them in the league table (home and away). So when it comes to having taken on stronger teams, they have come up short. The three league victories which Milan have taken have been by a margin of one goal.
