On Wednesday, starting with 20:45, the AS Roma – Parma match will be played, within the round with number 31 in Serie A.
The situation in Rome is dramatic! The team from the capital has been defeated in the last 3 matches of Serie A and is one step away from losing contact with the positions that ensure its presence in the next edition of the European cups. At this moment, the Romanians collected 48 points (5th place), tied with Napoli (6th place) and only 2 lengths ahead of AC Milan (7th place). In this context, in which the fight for qualification in the European cups is fiercer than ever. On the other hand, Parma, out of the fight for the European cups, is a “quiet” team. It is on the 12th place in the ranking, with 39 points obtained. Equally, just as European cups are just a utopia, eventual demotion is a dystopia. Undoubtedly, Parma will approach the match on “Olimpico” in a relaxed manner, without having the pressure to obtain a positive result. In this sense, we expect the host team to get the victory.
We also mention the fact that AS Roma will not have the Brazilian Jesus and the Iberian Lopez at their disposal, both being injured. at the same time, Parma will not be able to use the Ivorian Camara and the French Laurini (injured).
-Both teams come after 3 consecutive defeats in Serie A;
-Parma, without a victory in the direct trips from ’97.
Probable teams
AS Roma (4-2-3-1): Pau Lopez – Santon, Mancini, Ibanez, Kolarov – Cristante, Veretout – Perez, Pellegrini, Mikhitaryan – Dzeko;
Parma (4-3-3): Sepe – Darmian, Iacoponi, Alves, gagliolo – Kucka, Hernani, Kurtic – Kulusevski, Cornelius, Gervinho.
PREDICTION: AS Roma to win @ 1,52
