Udinese have named captain Antonio Di Natale in the starting lineup for their Serie A meeting with Sassuolo at the Stadio Friuli this afternoon.

The 38-year-old did not make an appearance in the 3-1 defeat to Roma earlier this week, but returns to partner Cyril Thereau in the attack.

There are five other changes to the side that started at the Stadio Olimpico, as Bruno Fernandes, Ali Adnan, Francesco Lodi, Felipe and Edenilson all begin from the off.

Sassuolo, meanwhile, have named Domenico Berardi, Antonio Floro Flores and Gregoire Defrel in their attack, as they look to follow up their 1-0 win over Juventus with another victory.

Udinese: Karnezis; Wague, Danilo, Felipe; Edenilson, Agyemang-Badu, Lodi, Fernandes, Adnan; Thereau, Di Natale

Sassuolo: Consigli; Longhi, Terranova, Vrsaljko, Acerbi; Missiroli, Duncan, Biondini; Defrel, Floro Flores, Berardi
