The Rossoneri have had a disastrous start to 2015 with just one Serie A victory and Coppa Italia elimination at the hands of 10-man Lazio.

There are reports failure to beat penultimate club Cesena at San Siro today will see Inzaghi sacked with assistant manager Mauro Tassotti taking over for the rest of the season.

As usual, the Coach has numerous problems to contend with, as Diego Lopez, Gabriel Paletta and Philippe Mexes are all suspended.

The injury list includes Stephan El Shaarawy, Mattia De Sciglio, Cristian Zapata, Michael Agazzi, Ignazio Abate, Pablo Armero and Cristian Zaccardo.

Daniele Bonera, Riccardo Montolivo and Sulley Muntari are back in the squad, while Alex is on the bench just days after fracturing his nose.

Menez and Destro are used together as a pair with support from Giacomo Bonaventura.

Cesena are still second from bottom, but have been revitalised recently by beating Lazio and Parma, then holding leaders Juventus to a 2-2 draw last week.

Gabriele Perico sits out a ban, plus Luca Valzania, Riccardo Cazzola, Guido Marilungo, Andrea Tabanelli, Nico Pulzetti and Emmanuel Cascione miss out.

The pace of striker Gregoire Defrel and power in the air of Milan Djuric are bound to cause this Milan defence some serious problems.

Cesena have never conquered San Siro and scored just one goal in their total 11 visits, scored back in 1975-76.
