The Allianz Stadium will play hosts to a Coppa Italia round of 16 battle between Juventus and Monza after the Old Lady were hammered by Napoli in Serie A and moved back into third just as the Lombardy outfit moved into 13th.
Monza got another famous Serie A win last time out when they managed to beat fellow promoted Serie B side, Cremonese.

Patrick Ciurria scored after 10 minutes that day before Gianluca Caprari scored in the 19th minute from the penalty spot, while he also netted in the second half.
On the other hand, despite winning all three points, they did let their 3-0 lead go towards the end of the game as it finished 3-2.
Monza now remain unbeaten since action resumed in Italy, as the club drew 1-1 in Florence with Fiorentina after an equaliser from Carlos Augusto in the second half.
They also got a sensational point against Inter Milan at home two weeks ago, as Ciurria scored once more just seconds after Inter took the lead, as they equalised through an own goal in the 93rd minute.
The Biancorossi are now in 13th and with a healthy gap of 12 points from relegation and their fears of moving right back down into Serie B are all but non-existent now.
In fact, Monza have secured six wins now in Serie A, which is the same as eighth-placed Udinese, who are just four points ahead of them.
Juventus are coming into this one off their back of arguably their worst loss in Serie A in many years.
They were hammered 5-1 by Napoli to move them down from second into third and this has now created a gap of 10 points on the league leaders from Naples.
The Old Lady are one point behind AC Milan in second as well.
These two famously met back in September when Monza registered their first Serie A victory since earning promotion from Serie B. Stunningly, Monza saw 61% of the ball that day and had four shots on target compared to Juventus' two.
Christian Gytkjaer scored that day in the second half to hand Monza all three points in what remains their greatest-ever win in the top flight.
Angel Di Maria was also sent off that day in the first half, which was one of the main reasons Raffaele Palladino's men got the victory.
Forebet predicts a win for Juventus and for the game to see under 2.5 goals.
