AS Roma vs Parma Prediction & Betting Tips (22 December)

Despite ambitious summer recruitment, Roma have greatly disappointed this season and today occupy 12th place in Serie A with 16 points taken from as many matches. The Louve club has seriously jeopardized its chances of winning a European folding seat. The poor results have already led to the dismissal of two coaches. Under the orders of Claudio Ranieri, the Giallorossi are unable to raise their heads, as evidenced by the 3 losses suffered during the last 4 days. Fallers of Lecce 4-1, they otherwise lost against Napoli 1-0, Atalanta 0-2 and Como last weekend 2-0. 14th in the Europa League, Roma can still hope to qualify directly for the round of 16.

Back in the elite this season, Parma is logically struggling not to go down. The promoted team is currently 15th in Serie A and is only a small point ahead of the first relegated team. In slow motion, Dennis Man's teammates have only won 2 of their last 14 league matches, for 5 draws and 7 defeats. After creating a surprise by beating Lazio 3-1, they restarted a negative dynamic. Parma lost to Inter 3-1 and to Hellas Verona last weekend 2-3.

Roma can count on its entire squad since potentially starting midfielders Cristante and Paredes are back on their feet. Coming into play at half-time last weekend, Ukrainian international Dovbyk (4 goals in SA) could find a starting place this Sunday and be supported by Dybala (2 goals in SA). The experienced Hummels should start in the middle of a 3-man defense. The French international Manu Koné constitutes one of the rare satisfactions of Roma this season. The Parma squad is reduced by the withdrawals of potential starters Circati, Osorio (defenders) and Bernabe (midfielder), striker Charpentier and substitutes Kowalski and Valenti.

On the last day, Swiss midfielder Sohm highlighted himself with a double. The offensive players Man (4 goals and 3 assists in SA) and Bonny (4 goals in SA) should be started. Parma has the 18th defense in the championship.
