Prediction: 2-1
Verona
Parma will look to recover from a 3-1 loss to Inter when they take on Verona at their Stadio Ennio Tardini on Matchday 16. The Gli Emiliani have been having their ups and downs of late, but they are surely capable of matching the Mastini in front of home fans. Botond Balogh is a major doubt after limping off with injury in the last league match, with Giovanni Leoni being ready to step up. Midfielder Mandela Keita serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
Verona, on the other hand, have been struggling on the travels this season, with the team already losing six games away from home. As Parma outplayed high-flying Lazio in their last home game, we are tempted to place our bets on Fabio Pecchia’s troops. All Ondrej Duda, Martin Frese, and Juan Manuel Cruz are out of contention for the away team.
Highlighted Team (Parma):
Founded in 1913, Parma is considered one of the most famous Italian clubs. The Gialloblu play home games in white shirts with a dark blue cross and dark blue shorts. Speaking of their away colours, Parma footballers wear yellow-blue kits on the travels. Parma have yet to win the Serie A trophy, but they did well to lift the UEFA Cup trophy on two occasions (1994/1995, 1998/1999).
To make things even better for Parma fans, the Gialloblu won the European Cup Winners’ Cup in the 1992/1993 season, with the team beating Royal Antwerp in the title game 3-1. A number of top-class footballers played for Parma in the past: Hernan Crespo, Roberto Mancini, Juan Veron, Roberto Mancini, Dino Baggio, Fabio Cannavaro and Gianluigi Buffon.
The Gialloblu welcome their rivals at Stadio Ennio Tardini, which was opened in 1923. The venue can hold up to 27,906 spectators. Bologna are considered Parma’s biggest rivals and there have always been fireworks in matches between the two sides.
