If $g$ is a <Lebesgue measurable function> and $h$ is a <Borel measurable function>, then $h\circ g$ is a <Lebesgue measurable function>. For an open <set> $U$, $h^{-1}(U)$ is a <Borel set>. By measurability of $g$, $g^{-1}(h^{-1}(U))$ is a <Lebesgue measurable set>, and it equals $(h\circ g)^{-1}(U)$. This is <composition of measurable functions> with the intermediate <Borel sigma-algebra> stated explicitly. Merely knowing both functions are Lebesgue measurable would not ensure that the intermediate sigma-algebras match.
