It is likely Cesare Prandelli will not risk SuperMario for the Monday evening must-win match, especially as he already underwent surgery on that knee in the past.
There had already been reports that Balotelli would be dropped after failing to score against Spain or Croatia.
Antonio Di Natale is now expected to start alongside Antonio Cassano.
