MILAN (AP) — The king of cups is set to go toe-to-toe with the king of Serie A when Inter Milan hosts Juventus in a match that could go a long way toward deciding the destination of Italian soccer’s top prize.
Inter coach Simone Inzaghi has won three Italian Cup titles and lifted the Italian Super Cup five times, earning him the title of “Re di Coppe” (“King of Cups”). He also steered Inter to the Champions League final last year.
However, the 47-year-old coach has never won a league title, although he appears to be closer than ever to it this season.
But standing in his way is one of the most successful coaches in Italy: Massimiliano Allegri.
The 56-year-old Allegri has won six Serie A titles — one with AC Milan and five with Juventus — and only Giovanni Trapattoni has more, with seven.
