Luca Antonelli and Levan Mchedlidze are out of action, but Ismael Bennacer and Domenico Maietta are back in the squad.
Parma welcome back Bastoni from injury, but he is only fit for the bench, while Antonino Barillà also returns after he was dropped against Napoli.
This means Massimo Gobbi is adapted at centre-back with Riccardo Gagliolo also in defence.
Gervinho and Roberto Inglese are this time flanked by Luca Siligardi rather than Jonathan Biabiany.
