"Parma will be hoping to snatch more points from AC Milan tomorrow evening, having frustrated the Rossoneri in the reverse fixture. After a rough run of results, the Gialloblu have seemingly found a bit of a stride with two consecutive wins, beating Bologna and Hellas Verona. There is some breathing room with regard to the relegation zone, as such, which could benefit them against Milan."
"Massimiliano Allegri made it clear that a very good game will be needed from the Rossoneri due to the above, not to mention the reverse fixture. Indeed, despite having a 2-0 lead, they only came away with one point (which they won't afford tomorrow). Opposition insight on Parma ➤ Manager: Carlos Cuesta ➤ Form (all comps): D-L-L-W-W (most recent) ➤ Top scorer (Serie A): Mateo Pellegrino - 7 ➤ Most assists (Serie A): Sascha Britschgi - 2 ➤ Injuries & suspensions: Circati, Frigan, Suzuki, Ndiaye, and Almqvist. All things considered, it has been a pretty decent season for Parma. With 29 points, they are in 12th place and thus quite a long way from the relegation zone, which is eight points down."
"The discussion could have been very different just two games ago, though, as Parma are coming off two consecutive wins and thus broke loose from the immediate danger. The fact that it was two stoppage-goals winners as well (vs. Bologna and Hellas Verona) has surely boosted the confidence. Carlos Cuesta, who used to be an assistant of Mikel Arteta at Arsenal, has thus done a decent job in his first season as a head coach."
Parma have regained momentum with two consecutive wins, both decided in stoppage time, lifting confidence and creating breathing room above the relegation zone. The club sits on 29 points in 12th place, eight points clear of immediate danger, and enters the Milan match more comfortably than earlier in the season. Carlos Cuesta, in his first season as head coach after serving as an assistant at Arsenal, has steadied the squad. Young attackers Adrian Bernabe and Mateo Pellegrino have contributed key goals and assists. Several players face injuries or suspension, which could affect selection.
