Fiorentina hope Andrea Belotti and Lucas Beltran can end their goal drought against Genoa’s Albert Gudmundsson and Junior Messias.
It kicks off at the Stadio Artemio Franchi at 17.30 UK time (16.30 GMT).
The Viola have really struggled in 2024 with only three Serie A wins and are fresh from a 0-0 Conference League quarter-final draw away to Viktoria Plzen.
With the second leg coming up on Thursday, they need to rotate the squad and rest Nico Gonzalez, while M’Bala Nzola has been ruled out by a muscular problem.
Giacomo Bonaventura is passed fit to start and Belotti leads the attack.
Genoa are comfortably mid-table after the 2-1 win away to Verona, having also held Juventus to a goalless draw in Week 29.
Ruslan Malinovskyi, Vitinha and Alan Matturro are still out of action, but Retegui returns to the squad after suspension, even though he is also carrying a knock and only fit for the bench.
It is a special game for ex-Fiorentina captain Milan Badelj and almost Viola man Albert Gudmundsson, who had been their main transfer target in January.
