Miroslav Klose has been recalled to the Lazio starting lineup for this afternoon's Serie A clash against Parma.

The striker missed their defeat against Genoa in midweek, but returns in place of Keita Balde.

He is partnered up front by Senad Lulic, with Antonio Candreva and Stefano Mauri offering support from midfield.

There is also a start for Lorik Cana, who replaces the suspended Cristian Ledesma.

Meanwhile, Parma have brought Jonathan Biabiany and Ezequiel Schelotto back into their starting XI.

Gabriel Paletta has been ruled out so Mattia Cassani takes his place in defence, but they will be without Amauri, who was sent off during their 2-1 defeat against Juventus on Wednesday evening.
