Sassuolo know they are in for a difficult trip to Parma and their Stadio Ennio Tardini. This preview has all the information you need before the game.

Insights:
  • Parma have the fewest points (11) at home in Serie A

It's no vacation for neither Parma nor Sassuolo as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

For Parma relegation is already certain this season. Only divine intervention and/or time travel can save them and neither look likely. Sassuolo are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.
