The line-ups are in for the first Serie A fixture on Sunday’s schedule, as Cagliari host Monza in an important match in the race top stay in the top flight.
Kick-off is due at the earlier time of 11.30 GMT.
Cagliari sit three points above the relegation zone ahead of kick-off, and can extend that buffer to six points with a victory on home soil on Sunday. Monza remain at the bottom of the table with just 15 points after 29 games.
The hosts have made two changes after their narrow 1-0 defeat by Roma prior to the international break: Tommaso Augello replaced Adam Obert at left-wing back, and Alessandro Deiola drops out of the team to make way for Mattia Felici.
Monza have made just one change to their starting line-up following their 1-1 draw with Parma last time out. Jean-Daniel Akpa Akpro replaces Kevin Zeroli in midfield in what is the only change in personnel. Armando Izzo keeps his place in the starting line-up after being cleared of match-fixing earlier in the week.
