The Italy international required 17 stitches to his upper lip and nose, and was treated for mild head trauma after coming off in the 75th minute.
He was taken to hospital and underwent a scan. However, the findings were all positive and revealed no fractures.
Viviano will rest for three days and should be back in time for next Sunday's home game against Genoa.
