Lecce

Injuries are piling up in midfield for Lecce. Ivan Ilić and Lassana Coulibaly are both sidelined with thigh problems, while Santiago Pierotti is out with an ankle injury, leaving Di Francesco with fewer choices in the centre of the pitch against Genoa.

Jamil Siebert is expected to start in central defence, with Kialonda Gaspar suspended. There are open choices elsewhere: Joël Monteiro and Konan N’Dri are competing for one place, while either Mohamed Kaba or Omri Gandelman could start in midfield. Paco Esteban is also expected to come into the side after appearing as a substitute against Frosinone.

Genoa

Johan Vásquez, Leo Østigård and Milutin Osmajic will all start away at Lecce. Mikael Ellertsson's ankle injury is not serious, though his availability will be assessed closer to the match.

Kingsley Ehizibue is doubtful due to injury, so Alexsandro Amorim could retain the right-sided role after making his first start in the last five matches against Juventus. Vítinha, who also started that match, is suspended and will be unavailable. Alessandro Marcandalli is expected to start at right-back, although Sebastian Otoa remains the alternative after making three starts in the last five games.
