AC Milan vs Lecce

Luka Modric (39 years and 354 days) became the oldest midfielder to provide an assist in Serie A since the data is available (since 2004/05).

Lecce became the first team against whom Milan scored at least two goals in 11 consecutive Serie A games.

AC Milan returned to keeping a clean sheet away from home against Lecce in Serie A for the first time since January 2002 (1-0 in that case, with Carlo Ancelotti on the bench).

Milan are one of the two teams, along with Bologna, against whom Lecce have drawn the most matches in Serie A: 13 draws in 38 matches, with two wins for the Salento side and 23 for the Rossoneri.

After winning their last three matches against Lecce in Serie A, Milan could achieve at least four consecutive victories against the Salento side for only the second time in their top-flight history, previously doing so between November 1989 and August 1993 (five in that case).

Lecce have won just one of their 19 home games against Milan in Serie A (D10 L8), with the sole victory dating back to April 2006 (1-0 thanks to a goal from Axel Konan under Roberto Rizzo); since then, there have been four draws and three Milan wins, with both teams always finding the net, for a goals per game average of 4.1.

Last season, Milan started the season without winning either of their first two games (2-2 vs Torino, 1-2 vs Parma), but only twice have the Rossoneri lost both their first two games of a season in their Serie A history: in 2008/09 under Carlo Ancelotti and in 1986/87 under Nils Liedholm.

Lecce have recorded three consecutive clean sheets in Serie A and could reach four consecutive games with a clean sheet for the first time ever in the competition.
