Prediction: 2-1
Perugia
Parma will try to recover from an embarrassing 4-0 loss to Bari when they welcome Perugia to their Stadio Ennio Tardini on Saturday afternoon. The Gli Emiliani do not seem to be at their sharpest, with the team obviously struggling at the back, but this match could be the turning point for the promotion-chasing hosts. The hosts will be without Cobbaut and Romagnoli, who are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in Fabio Pecchia’s team.
Perugia, on the other hand, have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both Venezia and Benevento, while sharing the spoils with Palermo. Since the visitors look sharp in front of goal, we are tempted to put our money on over 2.5 goals. Andrea Beghetto misses out with injury, but he should be the only absentee in the away team.
Highlighted Player (Gianluigi Buffon):
Gianluigi Buffon is a legendary Italian goalkeeper. The 191-cm-tall shoot-stopper was born in Carrara, Italy on 28 January, 1978 and he began his senior career at Parma. After making 169 league appearances for the Gli Emiliani, he joined Juventus in 2001 and he has been playing for the “Old Lady” ever since.
Buffon is regarded as one of the best goalkeepers in the history of football and he won seven Serie A trophies with Juve. In 2006 he helped Italy clinch the FIFA World Cup trophy as they defeated France on penalties in the title game. He managed to keep no less than five clean sheets at the showpiece tournament in Germany.
Buffon set a number of records and it has to be noted that he is a goalkeeper with most number of clean sheets and penalty kicks saved in the Serie A. His mother Mara Stella was a discus thrower, while his father Adriano was a weightlifter. Gigi’s contract with Juve expires on 30 June, 2018.
