AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has said he is fit for Saturday's match at arch-rivals Juventus despite a minor back complaint and general fatigue after months without a break.
"I'm fine, I'll be there against Juve," the Swede, who has been slightly off the boil in recent weeks, told Friday's Gazzetta dello Sport.
The Old Lady's woes have been summed up by defender Leandro Rinaudo, who has only made one appearance this season and who has been being ruled out for the rest of the season with an Achilles problem, Juve's website said.
Defender Victor Ruiz hopes to make his debut. The Azzurri have not lost twice in a row yet this term so are confident of bouncing back from Monday's 3-0 loss at Milan.
Lazio, in fourth, may have to do without centre back Andre Dias for Sunday's home match with Palermo after the Brazilian tweaked his hamstring in training.
Serse Cosmi takes charge of Palermo for the first time since Delio Rossi's sacking following last weekend's 7-0 home humiliation at the hands of Udinese.
