Actually if I was Conte, I wouldn't mind trying Vucinic as the center forward - I think that is his natural position.

Lichsteiner-----Caceres-----Vidal-----De Ceglie
--------Marrone-----Pirlo------Marchisio---------
-Pepe/Giacch--------Vucinic----------Del Piero--
Matri is a decent striker but he really needs great service and against the smaller teams that stack heaps of players in defense he struggles to find space. Borriello is useless.
Its a gamble, but worth trying at least at some point. And if things are not going well, throw in Elia and Matri or Quags.
