Parma
In the last round, Fabio Pecchia's charges managed to claim points in an away confrontation with Juventus (2:2). Nevertheless, Parma extended their winless streak in the league to eight matches (5 draws, 3 losses). In the league standings, the club is in 13th place with nine points. It is worth noting that Parma is among the top three most peaceful teams in the current Serie A season, alongside Juventus and Bologna (6 draws each).
Defender Alessandro Circati and midfielder Hernani will miss out due to injuries.
- The club has not won in 9 of their last 10 home matches in Serie A (2 draws, 7 losses).
- Both opponents have scored in the team's ten previous home encounters in the championship.
- At least three goals have been scored in 8 of Parma's last 10 home fixtures in Serie A.
Genoa
Alberto Gilardino's men suffered a 0:1 defeat at home to Fiorentina in the last round. As a result, the Genoese failed to win in their eighth consecutive Serie A encounter (2 draws, 6 losses). The club has dropped to the bottom of the table, having only six points to their name. Note that in terms of both goals scored (7) and conceded (21), Genoa is in the penultimate position in the current championship.
Goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini, defenders Mattia Bani and Koni De Winter, midfielder Ruslan Malinovskyi, and forwards Caleb Ekuban, Junior Messias, and Vitinha will miss the match due to injuries.
- The team has not won in 6 of their last 7 away games in Serie A (2 draws, 4 losses).
- At least one of the opponents did not score in 4 of the club's previous 5 away fixtures in the championship.
- No fewer than three goals have been scored in 4 of Genoa's last 5 matches in Serie A.
Prediction Parma vs Genoa
In home encounters, Parma's focus on the opposition's goal has brought them plenty of goals: the team's current scoring streak at home in Italy's elite division stands at 13 matches. In seven of these instances during this period, the club scored at least twice. However, Parma's defensive actions leave something to be desired: in their last ten home games in Serie A, the team has failed to keep a clean sheet. Genoa may not boast an outstanding attacking line, but they often find the net even away from home: in 10 of their last 15 away league encounters,
Genoa's players have not left the pitch without scoring. At the same time, the team's defensive performance at their goal is not always reliable: they have only one clean sheet in their last eight away matches in Serie A.
I expect an active attacking game from both teams in this encounter. Prediction: "Both Teams to Score – Yes" with odds of 1.78.
