Oliveira (14-5) is on his second stint in the UFC, but has dropped two bouts in a row to Gleison Tibau at UFC 130 and Yves Edwards at UFC on Versus 6. Izquierdo (6-1) dropped his only bout in the organization thus far to Reza Madadi by submission at UFC on Fuel 2 in April.
The fight will take place on the preliminary card.
