Parma vs Roma Predictions

Roma to grind out result at Parma

Roma look set to continue their good form away at Parma on Sunday. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side travel to Stadio Ennio Tardini to face Carlos Cuesta’s hosts, and they look the likely winners.

Roma are seven places and 22 points above Parma in the table. The hosts are 12th with ten wins, 12 draws and 13 losses, while Roma, in fifth, have won 20, drawn four and lost 11 of their 35 games this season.

Roma have scored an average of 1.83 goals a game and conceded just 0.50 in their 18 Serie A games against bottom-half teams this season, while Parma have struggled up top, scoring an average of just 0.65 goals in their 17 matches against top-half sides.

There’s a lot to like about Roma’s recent results, as they aim for a third straight Serie A success. They have lost just one of their last six league meetings with Parma.

Scoring has not been an issue for Roma lately, with the visitors finding the net at least twice in four of their last five Serie A games.

Defensively, Roma have kept things tight so far, with four clean sheets in their last six Serie A outings.

Parma have been disappointing in front of goal at home this season, scoring only 13 goals in 17 home games in Serie A – an average of 0.76 goals per game.

There have been under 2.5 goals in ten of Parma’s last 12 Serie A games and Roma have won the last two meetings between the sides by the odd goal. A 1-0 win for Roma looks a decent correct-score bet.
