"Extending on their Coppa Italia adventure last week as they edged past Spezia, Cuesta's men will also be excited by their extended dominance on home soil. Marking their return from September's international break with a 1-1 stalemate against La Dea, Parma have remarkably suffered just a single defeat from any of their previous 10 consecutive matchups at the Stadio Ennio Tardini - a run that stems all the way back to February 16th."
"Opening this weekend's fixtures sat rock-bottom of the table, Eusebio Di Francesco's men have rightfully come under serious scrutiny. Watching their respective Coppa Italia adventure come to a thumping end on September 23rd as they slumped to a routine 3-0 drumming against AC Milan, the Apulia-based outfit have also put just two points on the board from any of their first five Serie A showdowns."
Parma finished the 2024/25 campaign with a 3-2 victory at Atalanta and have built a reputation for a rugged approach under Carlos Cuesta. The team recently beat Torino 2-1 at home and progressed in the Coppa Italia by edging past Spezia. Parma have suffered just one defeat in their last ten home matches at the Stadio Ennio Tardini, a run dating back to February 16th. Parma have not registered consecutive Serie A wins since March 2024 but see an opportunity to extend their home form. Lecce sit rock-bottom with two points from five league games and have shown worrying defensive issues, including a 3-0 Coppa Italia loss to AC Milan and a 4-1 league defeat to Atalanta.
