Parma
Parma, who rarely collapse defensively, have suffered heavy defeats in their last two rounds, losing to Atalanta (0:4) and Juventus (1:4). Carlos Cuesta’s side have now gone four league matches without a win, and the only small consolation is the first goal they have scored in that stretch, which came against Juventus. After this poor run, the club have moved closer to the relegation zone in the standings, with the gap reduced to 6 points.
- Parma have not conceded more than once in 7 of their last 10 Serie A matches.
- Away from home, the team have avoided defeat in 5 of their last 6 league matches (3 wins, 2 draws).
- The club have scored in 5 of their last 7 away matches in this competition.
Potential Parma Lineup (4-3-3)*
Edoardo Corvi — Emanuele Valeri, Mariano Troilo, Enrico Del Prato, Alessandro Circati — Mandela Keita, Adrian Bernabe, Gaetano Oristanio — Hans Nicolussi Caviglia, Jakob Ondrejka, Mateo Pellegrino.
Goalkeeper Zion Suzuki, defender Abdoulaye Ndiaye, as well as forwards Pontus Almqvist and Matija Frigan will miss out through injury.

Bologna vs Parma: Match Prediction
Bologna’s prolonged crisis shows no sign of ending. Since the start of december, the team have picked up just one league win (3 draws, 7 defeats) — and even that came against Verona, who sit bottom of the table. What is more, even against that opponent, Vincenzo Italiano’s side conceded twice. Defensive issues are one of the key reasons behind the club’s downturn. Bologna have failed to keep a clean sheet for 11 Serie A matches, and in 7 games during that run the team have conceded at least twice.
Parma are one of the two lowest-scoring teams in the competition. But recently, Carlos Cuesta’s side have improved their finishing. The club have found the net in 5 of their last 7 away league games, failing to score only against Napoli and Atalanta, who are solid at the back. Meanwhile, Bologna have the second-worst defence among the teams in the top half of the standings.
Prediction: Parma individual total over 0.5
