Walter Mazzarri must cope without Keita Balde, while Marko Arnautovic returns to Bologna‘s starting line-up.
Bologna and Cagliari meet at the Stadio Dall’Ara in the last match of Serie A matchday 11.
It kicks off at 19.45 UK time.
The Austrian striker missed the Rossoblu’s trip to Naples last week due to a slight muscle injury. However, he has already recovered, so he is expected to start in Bologna’s attack with Roberto Soriano and Musa Barrow behind him.
Kevin Bonifazi is not available due to a muscle injury and he will return to action after the break.
The same goes for Jerdy Schouten, Kingsley and Nicolas Viola.
Cagliari’s Keita Bade is out of action with tonsillitis, so Joao Pedro and Leonardo Pavoletti will start up front for the Sardinians.
SebastianWalukiewicz is on the treatment table with a thigh injury. Dalbert, Marko Rog and Damir Ceter are also out of action with injuries.
Bologna: Skorupski; Soumaoro, Medel, Theate; De Silvestri, Dominguez, Svanberg, Hickey; Soriano, Barrow; Arnautovic.
Cagliari: Cragno; Bellanova, Ceppitelli, Godin, Carboni; Nandez, Marin, Deiola, Lykogiannis; Pavoletti, Joao Pedro.
