Last Sunday, Parma suffered their third consecutive defeat. This time it was a crushing defeat. "The Crusaders met Roma at the Olimpico and from the very first minutes the match was out of their control. The first goal was scored by Dybala on 8 minutes, and four minutes later Salemakers doubled the Roman advantage. The Argentine scored a double almost immediately after the start of the second half. It cannot be said that the Gialloblu did not try to get back on track. Kosta Runjaic's men even hit the frame of Svilar's goal twice. However, only the Wolves scored further. Paredes on 74 and Dovbyk on 83 set the final score. The result of the round of 16 match was also disappointing for the Parmesans. The team hosted Verona at the Ennio Tardi. The clubs exchanged goals in the first half, but thanks to a successful second half, the Mastiffs took home three points. Earlier, Parma lost 3-1 to Inter.

Monza's series of failures led to a change on the coaching bridge. So, starting from the reported match, the team will be led by Salvatore Bocchetti. Quite a strange appointment, hardly an inexperienced coach will fix the situation after Alessandro Nesta. "Brianzolli" hosted Juventus in the last round. The team, although the team kept the strike, but lost with a score of 1-2. With a similar result ended the meetings against Lecce and Udinese. After 17 rounds, the Biancorossi are at the bottom of the standings.

Both teams are underachieving on some statistical metrics. Monza, for example, according to the xGA metric, have conceded 2.17 goals less than they should. The brianzolli are also 5.36 points short according to xPTS. Parma have conceded 5.45 goals less than they should according to xGA. At the same time, the Crusaders have a slight underdog of 2.7 points. One of the teams at the end of the match will break their losing streak. The coaching change may give Monza a positive impetus, but it is unlikely to produce a win. It's worth noting that the Brienzoli have scored in four rounds. In only two away games have the team kept their gates intact. Parma are eager to rehabilitate not only for the defeat to Roma, but for all previous results. "The Gialloblu have conceded in each of their nine matches at the Ennio Tardi. However, in home games, the team did not distinguish themselves only once. Taking into account all of the above-mentioned, we can assume that in this meeting we should expect a productive football. It is worth betting on an exchange of goals.
