Jack Bonaventura looks set to support Ante Rebic in attack as Milan are back in action at the Via del Mare against Lecce.

Stefano Pioli will be without Zlatan Ibrahimovic tonight, as the Swede suffered an injury in training last month.

The away side will therefore count on Bonaventura to step up and help Samu Castillejo and Hakan Calhanoglu provide the goods in an attacking trident behind lone striker Rebic.

Franck Kessie and Ismael Bennacer should form the holding pair in midfield, ahead of Simon Kjaer and Alessio Romagnoli in the heart of the defence.

Fabio Liverani could opt to continue with his recent 4-3-2-1 formation, to give Gianluca Lapadula double support by Filippo Falco and Riccardo Saponara.

After having changed to the Christmas tree formation, the Giallorossi lost 4-0 to Roma and 7-2 to Atalanta ahead of the break.

Lecce are currently in desperate need of points to climb out of the relegation zone, with Milan fighting for a place in Europe next season.

Lecce (probable): Gabriel; Rispoli, Lucioni, Rossettini, Calderoni; Mayer, Tachtsidis, Mancosu; Falco, Saponara; Lapadula

Milan (probable): Donnarrumma; Conti, Kjaer, Romagnoli, Theo Hernandez; Kessie, Bennacer; Castillejo, Bonaventura, Calhanoglu; Rebic
