Each team's starting lineup from their previous match in this tournament is listed.
Parma
In the last round, Fabio Pecchia's team defeated Venezia 2-1 away. This victory ended Parma's nine-match winless streak in the league (5 draws, 4 losses). Additionally, the team scored two goals for the sixth time this Serie A season. In the standings, the club climbed to 13th place, with 12 points. Notably, Parma has only earned five points at home this season, surpassing just two clubs in this regard.
Midfielders Adrian Bernabe and Hernani will miss the game due to injuries.
- The club has not won in 10 of their last 11 home matches in Serie A (2 draws, 8 losses).
- Both teams scored in 10 of Parma's last 11 home league games.
- The number "1" appeared in the final score in 5 of Parma's last 7 home Serie A matches.
Atalanta
Gian Piero Gasperini's side defeated Udinese 2-1 at home in the last round. As a result, Atalanta secured their sixth consecutive Serie A victory, winning by at least two goals in five of those matches. In the standings, the Bergamo side climbed to second place with 25 points. Notably, the team has scored the most goals this season (31) and has the best goal difference (+16).
Defenders Berat Djimsiti, Sead Kolasinac, and Davide Zappacosta, along with forward Gianluca Scamacca, will miss the game due to injuries.
- The team has not lost in 7 of their last 9 away Serie A matches (6 wins, 1 draw).
- At least three goals have been scored in 10 of Atalanta's last 13 away league games.
- The Bergamo side conceded no more than one goal in 7 of their last 9 away Serie A matches.
Parma vs. Atalanta: Match Prediction
At home, Parma prefers not to sit back and plays actively in attack. Their previous home league match against Genoa (0-1) was the first in 14 home games where they failed to score. However, this style leads to conceded goals: in their last 11 home Serie A matches, they have not kept a clean sheet, conceding at least two goals in seven of those games.
Atalanta also favors attacking play and scores frequently, even away from home. In 11 of their last 12 away league matches, they breached the opposition's defense, scoring at least twice in eight of those games. However, their defense is not always reliable: in their last 19 away Serie A matches, Atalanta kept a clean sheet only five times.
Considering that both teams have scored in their last three league encounters at Parma's home, I expect a high-scoring game from both sides this time. My prediction: Both teams to score – Yes
