Serie A continues to roll on through the remainder of the season as fans up and down the country wait to see whether or not there’s going to be any late drama – whether it’s in the title race, the battle for a place in Europe or the relegation scrap. The game we’re going to take a look at today will pit two teams in the top half of the table against one another as Parma prepare to host Inter Milan with more than just three points being on the line.
Parma
A late push towards the European spots isn’t outside the realm of possibility for Parma, but if they want to achieve that goal, they need to maintain some real consistency with putting teams to the sword as they did so spectacularly against Genoa. They’re a blossoming side in this league with a whole lot of potential, and they’ll be desperate to prove that even without a ‘home advantage’, they can put on a show against Inter and prove that they belong in the top eight and beyond.

Iacoponi is set to miss out through suspension for Parma with Grassi, Inglese and Siligardi al facing a race to be fully fit for the Inter clash.
Inter Milan
Inter Milan’s title push has all but evaporated, with the focus now turning towards the summer transfer window. The expectation, and the hope for many fans, is that Inter will be able to bring in a whole host of new faces ahead of the new campaign. Prior to that, though, they can’t afford to let their standards drop, and they need to put everything they’ve got into ensuring they finish the current season in a way that will remind their rivals that they’re one of the most exciting teams in Europe.

Skriniar is suspended following his red card against Sassuolo, but Godin could return to the starting XI despite his many injury problems.
Factors to Consider
- In their last meeting back in October, Inter Milan and Parma drew 2-2.
- Parma have won two, drawn two and lost two of their last six games.
- Inter Milan have won three, drawn two and lost one of their last six games.
- Parma have scored eight goals and conceded six in their last six games.
- Inter Milan have scored 10 goals and conceded eight in their last six games.
Conclusion
Inter have far more attacking options that they can unload on Parma, but we’re still expecting the hosts to put up a fight. It’s going to be back and forth for large portions of the game before Inter eventually pull away late on, and that’s the sort of dynamic these games have been missing as of late in other leagues – but not for these two. This one isn’t going to be dead and buried until the full time whistle is blown, and that’s an exciting prospect for neutral fans.
