Ciro Immobile starts with Pedro and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, as Lazio know a win away to revamped Verona would put them in third place.
It kicks off at the Stadio Bentegodi at 17.30 GMT.
The Biancocelesti have a great opportunity to break away from Atalanta and Milan, who both lost at the weekend, climb above Roma and put themselves alone in third place.
There had been concerns over the fitness levels of Immobile and Felipe Anderson, with only Stefan Radu out of action.
The Brazilian is not risked from the start, replaced in the trident by Pedro along with ex-Verona revelation Mattia Zaccagni.
Ivan Provedel and Milinkovic-Savic also return after being rested for the midweek Coppa Italia quarter-final defeat to Juventus.
Verona have turned a corner under third coach of the season Marco Zaffaroni, losing only one of their last five games, including a win over Lecce.
They also made quite a few changes during the January transfer window, while Miguel Veloso, Pawel Dawidowicz, Thomas Henry, Ajdin Hrustic and Marco Davide Faraoni are injured.
Cyril Ngonge gets his first start after a substitute appearance against Udinese.
