Parma vs. Roma: Match Prediction
At home, Parma tends to play attacking football, allowing them to score regularly. In the last 20 home league matches, the team failed to score only once. In ten of these games, Parma scored at least twice. However, in their last 17 home Serie A matches, they have not kept a clean sheet.
Roma has been improving in away games recently, scoring regularly and winning their last two away league matches, despite not winning in the previous 13. In their last ten away Serie A matches, Roma failed to score only twice. However, their defense has not always been reliable, conceding in 9 of their last 10 away league matches.
I expect a high-scoring game from both sides, so my prediction: Both teams to score – yes
