Latest football match prediction: Parma vs Como
Parma have significantly improved their defense under coach Cristian Chivu and become more difficult to beat, but they are still not guaranteed survival in Serie A. A win on Friday – plus a few favorable results from other matches – could officially secure the safety of the Emilia-Romagna side.
Under Chivu, Parma have drawn 6 of their first 9 matches, won 2, and are currently 7 points clear of the relegation zone with 4 rounds remaining.
They've just had an impressive run of matches, drawing with title contenders Inter Milan, causing further trouble for Fiorentina, and then beating Juventus 1-0 at home at the Stadio Tardini. Most recently, Parma earned a point away at Lazio in a 2-2 draw, despite leading 2-0 thanks to a brace from Jacob Ondrejka, but conceding two late goals.
Despite not having won away from home since November (against Venezia), Parma are relying on their home form to maintain a safe distance from the bottom of the table. They have been unbeaten in their last four matches at the Tardini since Chivu replaced Fabio Pecchia.
A year after both teams were promoted from Serie B, Parma and Como face each other again. In the first leg, the two teams drew 1-1 at Stadio Sinigaglia. Parma are currently unbeaten in 15 consecutive home games against Como, with 9 wins in that streak – and they hope to extend this positive run.
While Parma is maintaining its form, Como has been even more impressive, having just won four consecutive Serie A matches – a feat only achieved once before, back in 1952. They have never won five consecutive games in Italy's top league, and Cesc Fabregas and his players have the opportunity to make history.
An impressive winning streak against Monza, Torino, Lecce, and Genoa – conceding only one goal – has helped Como climb to 11th place and keep alive their hopes of finishing the season in the top 10.
After young talent Assane Diao suffered a serious injury, Gabriel Strefezza returned to the starting lineup and immediately scored the decisive goal in the win against Genoa. Under Fabregas, Como played with high intensity, becoming one of the three teams that scored the most goals from pressing transitions (6 goals), on par with Napoli and Inter.
Notably, they have scored in all five of their most recent away games – with six goals in the last two – and are now aiming for three points against Parma to break into the top 10.
