Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Como will try to make amends for a 3-0 loss to Palermo when they take on Parma in an eagerly-awaited Serie B game. Como have a chance to climb to top four and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach against Parma. Both Kone and Baselli limped off with injuries in the last league match, with both Abildgaard and Chajia likely to step up.
The Gli Emiliani, on the other hand, are eager to retain top position in the standings. The league leaders are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win, but they should be happy with one point from Saturday’s clash as well. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. There are no fresh injury concerns in the away team ahead of the trip to Lombardy. The opposition back-line should have Poland winger Adrian Benedyczak at bay as the 23-year-old has been in a fine form of late.
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.
