Parma – Inter

Match analysis

Parma host Inter in what looks like a stark clash of ambitions, with the visitors perched in fourth place on nine points after three straight wins, while the hosts languish at the foot of the table with just a solitary point from four games. Parma’s meagre record – no victories, one draw and three defeats, scoring only two goals while conceding six – underscores the uphill battle they face against an Inter side that has already netted eight and let in just three. The two clubs have met only rarely in recent seasons, but the disparity in form this campaign suggests Inter will enter the match as clear favourites. A point for Parma could be a lifeline in their relegation fight, yet they will need to tighten up defensively and find a way to break down an Inter defence that has kept clean sheets in two of their three wins.
