Milan Badelj and Morten Thorsby suffered knocks and are fresh absentees for Patrick Vieira. Ruslan Malinovski and Maxwel Cornet are back in training but are not ready for this match. Honest Ahanor is also sidelined here.
The Leoni alati have won just one of their last 14 league games while suffering eight defeats. They are winless in their last 24 Serie A away games, which is a cause for concern.
Marin Sverko and Alfred Duncan are back in training but should return to the squad next week. Richie Sagrado, Filip Stankovic, and Ridgeciano Haps are also sidelined with injuries.
