Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Parma in 8th and Milan in 12th place.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Parma form and stats
Parma have collected 12 points from their Serie A home games so far after 4-0-3.
The home team returns to Ennio Tardini after sharing the points with Bologna (placed 15th) on their last time out; the Serie A game ended 2-2. Before that, Parma had a home game versus Roma which ended with a victory 2-0.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Coppa Italia game versus Frosinone in only four days. This game is also played here at Ennio Tardini.
Parma have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Ennio Tardini with 12 goals in 7 league matches. On the other hand, Parma have conceded 8 goals.
Milan form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Milan so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 2-0-4 (win-draw-lose). With two straight losses from their last two away games, Milan are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
There were no winners in Milan's previous match, a Serie A home game that ended 1-1 vs Napoli (placed 7th). Prior to that match, the Milan manager S. Pioli faced defeat when travelling to Juventus and losing 0-1.
The attacking power of Milan when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away. As opposed to that, Milan have seen the ball go into their own net 7 times on the road.
