Parma
Fabio Pecchia's side suffered a 1-3 defeat at home to Atalanta in the previous round. As a result, Parma has failed to win 10 of their last 11 Serie A matches (5 draws, 5 losses). Moreover, the club has conceded at least two goals for the sixth time in the current championship. In the standings, the team has 12 points, placing them in 13th position. Notably, in terms of points earned in home matches this Serie A season (5), Parma is ahead of only Monza (3).
Midfielders Adrian Bernabe and Hernani will miss the game due to injuries.
- The club has not won in 11 of their last 12 home matches in Serie A (2 draws, 9 losses).
- Both opponents scored in 11 of the last 12 home league matches for the team.
- The number "1" appeared in the final score in 6 of Parma's last 8 home Serie A matches.
Lazio
Marco Baroni's side confidently defeated Bologna 3-0 at home in the last round. As a result, Lazio secured their fifth consecutive victory in the league – a streak not seen since the 2020/21 season. During this period, the Romans won three times with a margin of at least three goals. The team retained fifth position in the standings, trailing leader Napoli by just one point. Notably, Lazio has the third-highest scoring rate in the current championship (28 goals).
Defender Nuno Tavares will miss the game due to injury.
- One of the teams won by a margin of exactly one goal in 5 of Lazio's last 6 away Serie A matches.

Parma vs. Lazio: Match Prediction
At home, Parma does not sit back in defense and boldly pushes forward. Thanks to this style of play, the team scores regularly: in their last 15 home Serie A matches, the club's players failed to score only once. Moreover, in the current championship, Parma has already scored two goals in three home matches.
Lazio rarely struggles with scoring, even in away games. In their last 19 away Serie A matches, the team left the field without scoring only twice. However, the Romans do not boast a highly reliable defense: the club has kept just one clean sheet in their last eight away league matches.
I anticipate a high-scoring game from both opponents in this encounter, so my prediction: Both teams to score – yes
