Struggling Parma welcome title-chasing Napoli to the Stadio Ennio Tardini for an Italian Serie A encounter on Sunday.

The hosts are desperate to return to winning ways after their recent slump, but face a tough test against a Napoli side determined to keep the pressure on leaders Inter Milan.

Parma News

Parma are currently enduring a dip in form, having failed to win any of their last five matches following an earlier run of three straight victories. They were held to a 1-1 draw away at Lazio in their most recent outing, with Enrico Delprato finding the net.

Amid their struggles, Carlos Cuesta's men are not in immediate danger of relegation. They sit 13th in the table, eight points clear of the drop zone. There have been some positives going forward, with Parma scoring in seven of their last 10 matches. However, three clean sheets recorded in that run is a worrying sign against an in-form Napoli attack.

Confidence at home has also dipped, with the Crusaders managing just two wins from their last nine matches at the Stadio Ennio Tardini. Slow starts have hurt them as well, conceding the opening goal in three of their last four home fixtures. Their matches have been relatively open, with over 2.5 goals landing in four of their last 10 games.

Napoli News

Napoli climbed back into second place after a 1-0 victory over AC Milan, with Matteo Politano scoring the decisive goal. That result extended the Partenopei’s winning streak to five matches in Serie A, keeping them firmly in the title race.

The defending champions sit seven points behind leaders Inter and will be eager to keep the pressure on by securing another win here. They have been impressive lately, winning seven of their last 10 matches while scoring in each of those games. Defensively, however, they have shown some vulnerability, managing just two clean sheets in that run.

Antonio Conte’s side have equally been solid on the road, winning three of their last four away matches. Quick starts have been a key feature of their recent performances, with Napoli scoring the opening goal in five of their last six fixtures. The Partenopei have also entertained with their football lately, producing over 2.5 goals in eight of their last 10 outings.

Head to Head

Napoli have had the upper hand in recent meetings, winning five of the last 10 clashes compared to Parma’s two. They are unbeaten in the last five encounters, although the most recent meeting ended in a goalless draw.

Verdict

Parma v Napoli

Napoli are unbeaten in their last five matches against Parma and head into this clash on a five-game winning streak in Serie A, making another victory likely for the visitors.

With eight of Napoli’s last 10 matches producing at least three goals, over 2.5 goals looks a solid option. Their tendency for fast starts also stands out, having scored first in five of their last six games, which makes Napoli to win the first half an appealing pick.
