Lazio coach Vladimir Petkovic has decided to bring Ogenyi Onazi back into his starting XI for this afternoon's Serie A clash with Genoa.
Onazi takes the place of Brazilian playmaker Hernanes, who does not even make the Lazio bench despite starting against AC Milan on Wednesday.
Bruno Pereirinha also returns at left-back with Lorik Cana suspended, allowing skipper Stefan Radu to move across and cover in central defence.
Genoa travel to Rome without Francesco Lodi but do have Giovanni Marchese fit to start, with Alberto Gilardino once again leading the line in a lone front role.
Lazio Marchetti; Cavanda, Ciani, Radu, Pereirinha; Onazi, Ledesma, Gonzalez; Candreva, Klose, Felipe Anderson
Genoa: Perin; Antonini, Portanova, Manfredini; Biondini, Kucka, Matuzalem, Cofie, Marchese; Antonelli; Gilardino
