"Against Lazio, Rafa has four goals and five assists in 14 games against them. The Portuguese has been involved in five goals in his last five league appearances against Lazio (two goals, three assists). His last goal against them came in the first half of the season (the winner on November 29)."
"To put things in perspective, there is no side in his career against whom Leao boasts more assists, while in terms of goals he has only netted more against Lecce (5), Fiorentina (6) and Cagliari (7)."
"The relationship between Leao and Massimiliano has always been one of mutual respect and admiration, with the coach eager to instil in the forward a sense of belonging that was perhaps missing last and previous seasons."
Rafael Leao is set to lead AC Milan's attack against Lazio on Sunday evening at the Olimpico. The Portuguese forward has a strong record against Lazio, having scored four goals and provided five assists across 14 encounters. He has been particularly prolific in recent league meetings, contributing to five goals in his last five appearances against them. Leao maintains a positive relationship with coach Massimiliano Allegri, who aims to foster a sense of belonging. Despite dealing with pubalgia, Leao has performed well this season with 10 goals and two assists. He will be joined by Christian Pulisic in attack, though Pulisic has not scored since late December.
