Lazio manager Vladimir Petkovic has decided to hand Louis Saha his first start for the Rome giants against Catania this afternoon.
Saha gets the nod ahead of Libor Kozak, while Sergio Floccari misses out through injury.
Michael Ciani is suspended for the home side, who opt to move Lorik Cana into central defence as a replacement.
Veteran striker Miroslav Klose is named among the substitutes for the first time in two months after returning to full training last week.
Catania are at full strength in attack but must cope without suspended duo Nicolas Spolli and Alessandro Potenza.
Lazio: Marchetti, Gonzalez, Biava, Cana, Radu, Candreva, Onazi, Ledesma, Hernanes, Lulic, Saha
Catania: Andujar, Alvarez, Legrottaglie, Bellusci, Marchese, Izco, Lodi, Biagiant, Barrientos, Bergessio, Gomez
