Lega Italia has altered the rules for the remaining Coppa Italia fixtures.
There will be no extra time in the semi-finals or final.
Football activities will return in Italy this Friday after a three-month hiatus that was caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Juventus will play Milan in the second leg of Coppa Italia semi-final. The first match ended in a 1-1 draw in February.
Napoli will host Inter on Saturday in the second semi-final. Napoli are leading 1-0 from the first leg.
The final is scheduled for June 17, three days before the Italian Serie A returns to action.
To ensure that players are not overworked following the return of football and reduce the risk of injury, the remaining Coppa Italia games will go straight to penalties if a winner can’t be found at the end of 90 minutes.
The away goal rule however remains for the semi-finals.
