Our prediction for this Serie B match:
Parma will be aiming to keep their 100% record in the 2023/2024 season intact when they take on Reggiana on Saturday afternoon. The Gli Emiliani are determined to return to the Italian top flight, but head coach Fabio Pecchia must warn his men against complacency. Even though defender Woyo Coulibaly is banned for the match, home win should be considered as Parma made a promising start to the season.
The visitors, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to Palermo and given their three-game winless run in the Serie B, home win should be considered. Midfielder Marcandalli misses out through suspension, whereas both Cedric Gondo and Luca Vido are sidelined with injuries for the away team. You should know that in their last encounter at Stadio Ennio Tardini Parma defeated Reggiana thanks to Yves Baraye’s goal.
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.
