Parma vs. Juventus: Match Prediction
Parma hasn't always managed to secure positive results at home this season, but credit to the team – they play boldly and attack actively. The club regularly finds the net: in the current championship, Parma players have left the field without scoring in only two of their 16 home matches. At the same time, the team rarely avoids defensive mistakes: they've kept just one clean sheet this Serie A season.
A similar picture is observed in Juventus's away matches: the team rarely faces issues in attack but also regularly concedes. In their last 13 away league encounters, the Turin side has only failed to breach the opposition's defense twice, but in 8 of their last 9 away matches, they've managed to keep a clean sheet just once.
I expect this to be a high-scoring encounter, with both teams showing creativity in attack. My prediction: Both teams to score – yes
