The pressure continues to mount on Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri, as Italian media speculate on a future project with Andrea Pirlo at the helm.
The Bianconeri have a six-point gap down to Inter at second but the former Napoli coach has struggled to convince in Turin.
Having already lost two Finals in the Coppa Italia and the Supercoppa Italiana so far this season, Sarri must also turn around a 1-0 defeat to Olympique Lyonnais to advance in the Champions League.

Sportmediaset and Tuttomercatoweb both claim his position in Turin could be under the lupe against Lazio on Monday.
A defeat to the Aquile could potentially blow the Scudetto race wide open again, and an Inter win against Roma on Sunday will cut the gap to three points before Juventus take on Simone Inzaghi's men.
Fabio Pecchia leaves his post at the reserves and the reports claim the former midfielder Pirlo is set to initiate his coaching career with the Bianconeri.
The Old Lady could have Pirlo in mind for the top job in the future and TMW highlights that the World Cup winner has already started to put together a team of staff for his new adventure.
But the reports do underline that it's early days for Pirlo and that he will primarily be thought of for the position as coach of Juventus’ Under-23 side.
