The two coaches are largely considered dead men walking. Much reporting assumes that the two will be sacked at the end of the year, leaving both in a strange lame-duck scenario as the season draws to a close.
Allegri made five changes from the XI that squeaked into the Coppa Italia final on Tuesday. Wojciech Szczesny took over the gloves after Mattia Perin's Coppa outing, protected by Federico Gatti, Bremer, and Danilo.
Pioli had a true crisis on their hands. Only three of his defenders were healthy and/or available for the game. Simon Kjaer and Pierre Kalulu were hurt, while Theo Hernandez, Davide Calabria and Fikayo Tomori were suspended.
