📋 Team News: Parma

Nahuel Estévez (Hamstring strain), Matteo Cancellieri (Thigh problems), Adrián Bernabé (Hamstring injury), Yordan Osorio (Herniated disc), Alessandro Vogliacco (Hamstring injury), Pontus Almqvist (Thigh problems), Mateusz Kowalski (Cruciate ligament tear), Valentin Mihăilă (muscular problems) and Gabriel Charpentier (Achilles tendon rupture) aren’t available for Parma boss Cristian Chivu.

In our view, I Crociati look set to use the 5-3-2 system this time featuring Zion Suzuki, Giovanni Leoni, Lautaro Valenti, Enrico Del Prato, Antoine Hainaut, Emanuele Valeri, Mandela Keita, Jacob Ondrejka, Simon Sohm, Mateo Pellegrino and Ange-Yoan Bonny.

🗞️ Team News: Como

Como manager Cesc Fábregas has multiple availability issues to deal with. Alberto Dossena (Cruciate ligament tear), Iván Azón (Knee problems), Assane Diao (Broken foot) and Sergi Roberto (Hamstring strain) are those who can’t be considered.

We are inclined to think that I Lariani could decide to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system by sending out Jean Butez, Mergim Vojvoda, Edoardo Goldaniga, Marc-Oliver Kempf, Alex Valle, Maxence Caqueret, Lucas Da Cunha, Gabriel Strefezza, Nico Paz, Jonathan Ikone and Patrick Cutrone.

🔮 Prediction

We feel that Como and Parma could well both score and end up finding themselves in a fairly even game here.

It’s looking like it could well end up as a draw. We’re therefore tipping a 1-1 score draw at the conclusion of the game.
