| Milan duo to miss Lazio date |

Alexandre Pato and Andrea Pirlo are set to miss out on Milan's Coppa Italia clash with Lazio on Wednesday evening.
The Rossoneri are looking to return to winning ways after a disappointing 3-1 defeat against Palermo on Sunday evening.
But Carlo Ancelotti's men should expect fierce resistance from Lazio, who are also trying to erase memories of a poor weekend, which saw them beaten at Atalanta.
Ancelotti, who saw a second-string side crash out to Catania last year, is expected to name a strong side for the Cup encounter, but he will have to do without Pirlo and Pato.
Pirlo, who has only just recovered from a long lay-off, is feeling sore after his efforts at the weekend and won't be risked.
Brazilian striking starlet Pato picked up a series of knocks against Palermo and had to come off after just 29 minutes.
Although the ex-Internacional man's injuries aren't serious, he will also be allowed to rest.
