Prediction: 1-1
Udinese
Parma will be aiming to bounce back from their 2-1 loss to Napoli when they welcome Udinese to the Ennio Tardini in Serie A round 4. The Gli Emiliani proved their worth in their first home match of the season, defeating Milan 2-1, and they’ll be eager to replicate that performance here. Zion Suzuki is sidelined due to suspension, but Parma’s home form makes them a difficult side to break down.
Udinese head into this game after back-to-back home wins over Como and Lazio, which has given them a confidence boost. However, the Zebrette are not regarded as good travellers, and the absence of star forward Alexis Sanchez due to injury adds to their challenges for this match. Given Parma's resilience at home and Udinese’s recent form, this promises to be a closely contested encounter. A share of the spoils seems the most likely outcome in what should be an interesting Serie A showdown.
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.
