Max Allegri is expected to keep faith in second choice keeper Norberto Neto who has featured for Juventus in the previous two rounds of Coppa Italia. Stefano Struraro, Alvaro Morata and Martin Caceres came in for praise from their manager after the quarter-final victory against Lazio and will be hopeful of retaining their places. Simone Zaza picked up a second yellow card in the competition and will miss out through suspension.
Inter Milan have a fully fit squad of players and Roberto Mancini is likely to make changes to the side that disappointed in the 1-1 draw against Carpi on Sunday. Joao Miranda and Yuto Nagatomo could return to defence while Stevan Jovetic provides an option up front. Leading scorer Mauro Icardi has gone four games without a goal while strike partner Rodrigo scored his first league goal of the season when netting the opener against Carpi.
