Team News: Mounir El Hamdaoui, Alberto Aquilani recalled for Fiorentina

Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Montella has recalled Mounir El Hamdaoui into his starting lineup for the Serie A trip to Cesena.

The one-time Tottenham Hotspur forward returns for a rare start along with Alberto Aquilani, who was a doubt heading into this one due to injury.

Juan Cuadrado is suspended for the visitors, meanwhile, but Mario Gomez is deemed fit enough to start from the off having been eased back into action.

Cesena are looking to climb out of the relegation zone after winning just one game all season, but they will be without Guido Marilungo this evening, with the star striker ruled out until the New Year.

Cesena: Leali, Mazzotta, Capelli, Lucchini, Volta, Nica, Cascione, Carbonero, Coppola, Defrel, Almeida

Fiorentina: Alonso, Aquilani, Badelj, Basanta, Borja, El Hamdaoui, Fernandez, Gomez, Gonzalo Rodriguez, Ilicic, Joaquin
