Check out the probable line-ups for two of today’s four Serie A games: Spezia-Verona and Sampdoria-Salernitana.
We begin at 11.30 GMT with Spezia hosting Hellas Verona in a key fixture for the relegation battle. Just three points divide these two sides in the table, with Verona currently sitting 18th in the dropzone.
This is Leonardo Semplici’s debut at home for Spezia after last week’s 2-2 draw away at Udinese.
Spezia vs. Verona – probable line-ups
Spezia (4-3-3): Dragowski; Amian, Ampadu, Nikolaou, Reca; Ekdal, Burabia, Agudelo; Gyasi, Nzola, Verde.
Verona (3-5-2): Montipò; Coppola, Hien, Magnani; Faraoni, Duda, Tameze, Lazovic, Doig; Ngonge, Gaich.
Troubled Sampdoria host Salernitana at 14.00 GMT.
The Blucerchiati have never won at home this term and have only scored three goals at Marassi. They are also without their starting strikers Sam Lammers (injured) and Manolo Gabbiadini (suspended).
Both Jese Rodriguez and Fabio Quagliarella are expected to start in attack with Abdelhamid Sabiri or Michaël Cuisance behind them.
The only doubt for Salernitana coach Paulo Sousa appears to be on the left flank, with Domagoj Bradarić favourite over Pasquale Mazzocchi.
Sampdoria vs. Salernitana – probable line-ups
Sampdoria (3-4-1-2): Audero; Gunter, Nuytinck, Amione; Leris, Winks, Rincon, Augello; Cuisance; Quagliarella, Jese.
Salernitana (3-4-2-1): Ochoa; Gyomber, Daniliuc, Pirola; Sambia, L Coulibaly, Crnigoj, Bradaric; Candreva, Kastanos; Piatek.
