"Milan escaped Como with a 3-1 win. The win was definitely not something that would fall under the deserved win category. Como were overrunning Milan in the first half. The hosts took the lead early and Milan had only Maignan to thank for the game not being out of reach before the end of the 45. A penalty converted by Nkunku after Marc-Oliver Kempf made contact with Rabiot provided a lifeline and Milan went into the break with a fortunate tie."
"Rabiot made a long-range speculative shot that made it under the bar. Rabiot scored late to save Milan. Maignan was man of the match though. Allegri's half time tweak deserved credit. Leao moving wider allowed him more space to operate in his more natural role. Lecce is another lowly team that will present a challenge for Milan. Head to head history between the two team favors Milan by a wide margin but the challenge remains."
Milan edged Como 3-1 after a first half in which Como dominated and took an early lead. Maignan made crucial saves to keep Milan in the game before half-time. Nkunku converted a penalty after Marc-Oliver Kempf fouled Rabiot to level before the break, and Rabiot scored late to secure the win. Allegri's half-time tactical tweak, including moving Leao wider, created more space for Leao to operate. Pulisic is expected to return against Lecce; Loftus-Cheek could start while Modric may rest. Pavlovic will remain out to recover from head stitches, and Camarda will miss due to a reported shoulder injury. Lecce have scored only 13 Serie A goals this season.
