With their 20 point advantage in the league table, Parma fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against SPAL.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Parma form and stats
Parma have played 12 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-1-5 (wins-draws-losses).

The Parma fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 17 in 12 matches. Parma are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadio Ennio Tardini in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 11 from 12 matches.
SPAL form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for SPAL so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-10 (win-draw-lose). It's looking increasingly bleak for SPAL who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. Atalanta was the last time a defeat was avoided. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as SPAL have lost on their last two travels.
The manager L. Di Biagio was unhappy after their last game, a Serie A match played at their home ground Stadio Paolo Mazza. SPAL suffered a 1-2 loss to Juventus (placed 2nd). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Lecce wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
SPAL are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, six draws and five defeats. From a total of eleven matches.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting SPAL as they have only managed to score 8 times from 13 away games in the league. SPAL's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 24 goals from these trips.
