Returns to the bench versus Genoa Izzo (foot) was an unused sub in Sunday's 1-0 victory over Genoa.

Impact Izzo was fit enough to be an option for the first time since October after missing eight matches due to a foot injury.

He started over Danilo D'Ambrosio before getting hurt. He recorded 11 tackles, five interceptions, and seven clearances in five matches, with one clean sheet.
