Abel Hernandez starts up front for Palermo against Bologna just days after he was robbed at gunpoint.
The Uruguayan striker had a gun pushed into his mouth when he was robbed while driving home from the Rosanero training ground on Wednesday.
Perhaps as a show of faith to boost his confidence, Hernandez has been thrown in at the deep end with a rare start at the Stadio Dall'Ara.
It means Fabrizio Miccoli is on the bench for this 17.00 UK time kick-off, while Javier Garcia replaces the suspended Federico Balzaretti.
