Sampdoria have named Maxi Lopez in their starting lineup for this afternoon's Serie A match against Hellas Verona.
The striker comes in for Stefano Okaka, who has been named among the substitutes.

Emil Hallfredsson and Marco Donadel also return to the side after last weekend's defeat against Inter Milan.
