Fiorentina’s Albert Gudmundsson is set to get his second consecutive Serie A start since returning from injury, as he’ll look to help his side bounce back from last week’s defeat at Bologna.
It kicks off at 18:30 CET (17:30 GMT) at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in Florence.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Riccardo Sottil is favoured to get the nod as a left offensive winger, with Andrea Colpani on the opposite side and top goalscorer Moise Kean up front.
Michael Kayode will replace Dodo, who is suspended, as a right-back, while Danilo Cataldi and Yacine Adli are set to start as holding midfielders.

Edoardo Bove will return to attend a Fiorentina game for the first time since the medical emergency, as he is expected to be in the stands at the Stadio Artemio Franchi on Monday.
Sande Lovric and Lautaro Giannetti are both unavailable for Udinese, meaning their coach Kosta Runjaic will field midfielder Arthur Atta and centre-back Isaak Touré at their places.
Goalkeeper Maduka Okoye is set to remain out for months after undergoing surgery due to a wrist injury, meaning that 22-year-old Răzvan Sava will start in goal again.
