AC Milan vs Parma Prediction & Betting Tips (26 January)

AC Milan is having a disappointing season and is only in 8th place in Serie A, 8 points behind 4th place. The Lombard team will therefore have to work hard to secure a ticket for the next Champions League. The poor results pushed the leaders to fire coach Paulo Fonseca at the end of December. Under the orders of Sergio Conceiçao since then, the Rosseneri started the adventure perfectly by winning the Italian Super Cup following successes against Juventus in the semi-finals 2-1 and Inter in the final 3-2. Subsequently, they were more sluggish in the league without losing against Cagliari 1-1 and narrowly beating Como 1-2. On the other hand, the dynamic ended on the field of Juventus last weekend 2-0.

Parma hopes to hang on for its return to the elite this season. 16th in Serie A with a small point ahead of the first relegated team, the promoted team is fully in the battle. Fabio Pecchia's men have won only one of their last 7 league matches, with 2 draws and 4 defeats. This unique success was acquired, at home, against the red lantern Monza at the end of December 2-1. Parma have since lost to Genoa 1-0 and shared points with Torino 0-0 and Venezia last weekend 1-1 .

AC Milan still deplores the loss of important defender Thiaw, potential starters Chukwueze and Loftus-Cheek as well as full-back Florenzi. In addition, the influential Pulisic (5 goals and 4 assists in SA) remains uncertain, as does the replacement Okafor. The good news comes from the return from suspension of the starting striker Morata (5 goals in SA). The captain of La Roja should be supported by Reijnders (5 goals and 2 assists in SA) and Leao (4 goals and 4 assists in SA). Not spared by injuries, Parma already do without the important defender Circati, the promising midfielder Kowalski and striker Charpentier, whose season is already over.

Added to this are the packages of potential starters Balogh, Osorio (defenders) and Bernabe (midfielder). Substitute during the last two days, the Romanian winger Man (4 goals and 3 assists in SA) could start this time. This winter, Parma grabbed left-back Lovik (Molde) and central defender Vogliacco (Genoa) but let right-back Coulibaly (Leicester) leave.
