Parma is back in Serie A
Parma took first place in Serie B last season, earning 76 points, and accordingly managed to rise to the strongest division. The club beat the second line in the standings by three points, as were predicted with numerous football tips on throughout the season. There are no bright stars in this team, but the roster is made up of experienced players who were able to return to the elite division last season.The team looked decent all season, having already scored 66 goals, which is the best result in the league. However, despite the success in Serie B, the transition to a higher level is always associated with certain difficulties.
Several transfers were made in the summer, which strengthened the team, but there are concerns about the cohesion of the new players with the main squad. In pre-season matches, the team showed good results, but this may not be enough for a successful start in official games.
Parma’s pre-season matches showed that the team is in the process of developing new connections. The coaching staff experimented extensively with the lineup and tactics to find the best combinations. In some matches the team demonstrated a bright and attacking game, winning, in particular, against the formidable Galatasaray 2:0, but there were also moments when Parma had difficulties in defense and midfield. This shows that the process of adaptation to a higher level is still ongoing.
How will the Violets enter the season?
Fiorentina showed a decent level of play last season. As a result, the club finished in eighth place in the table, having managed to get 60 points, which allowed them to get into the Conference League. In the final of last season in the Conference League, the “Squadra viola” lost to Olympiakos in extra time – 0:1.
Last season, the team finished in the top part of the Serie A table and was able to establish itself as a strong opponent for any club. Fiorentina are aiming for places in the European Cups and to continue the successful play that they demonstrated last season.
Strengths and weaknesses
The team still keeps its pivotal players and made targeted reinforcements, which allows us to expect stable play from them in the new season.
The main advantage of Fiorentina is their stability and cohesion. The team knows its strengths well and knows how to use them. The leading players in attack and midfield are in excellent form, which makes Fiorentina a dangerous opponent for any team. However, it should be noted that in some matches last season the team had problems with converting moments, which may become a certain problem in the new season.
Game prediction
Considering the difference in class and experience of playing at the highest level, Fiorentina looks like the favorite of this match. However, we should not discount the home field factor and the high motivation of Parma, eager to loudly declare their return to the elite.
The most likely outcome seems to be a victory for Fiorentina with a minimal advantage. The recommended bet is a victory of the guests with a handicap (0). This option takes into account the higher class of the “violets”, but also leaves room for a possible draw, which often happens in the opening matches of the season. In any case, the fans will have an exciting match, which can be a great start to the new football year in Italy.
