Parma cemented their recent run as draw specialists with a 2-2 score away at Juventus, recording their fourth consecutive draw. However, this draw also meant that they have been winless in 8 matches in Serie A.
In their opening ten matches in Serie A this season, Parma has been in poor form, winning just once, drawing six times, and losing three times. This run has resulted in Parma being 14th on the table, winning just 10% of their matches.
In front of their home supporters, Parma have 1 win, 2 draws, and 2 losses, with their away form even being worse, with 0 wins, 4 draws, and 1 loss.
In their ten outings in Serie A, Parma have scored 14 goals, which relatively matches their xG For average of 1.37. The challenge for Parma has been in their defensive set-up, conceding 16 goals, which is above their xG Against of 1.56 per match.
Football predictions on 22Bet show that Fabio Pecchia needs to strengthen his side’s defensive structure to make it more solid and compact ahead of hosting Genoa on Monday. Though generally solid, they struggle with fast counterattacks and concede frequently from set pieces.
Another point of concern is that Parma have difficulty converting their chances, scoring just one goal per match on average in their last five. Although key players like Dennis Man and Andrea Pinamonti have done their part, other players should also step up if Parma want to change their current trajectory.
Genoa are at the basement of Serie A with just 6 points from their opening ten rounds of fixtures. Stats show that the team has only averaged 0.60 points per match. In their last eight outings in Serie A, their points tally has been even lower, averaging 0.25 points per match, lower than the season’s average. This indicates a drop-off in form for Genoa compared to the opening of the season.
Genoa have been lacking in sharpness and penetration in attack, both at home and away from home. They have managed just seven goals, among the lowest tallies in Serie A. This tally is also an underperformance on their xG For per match of 1.04, which translates to at least ten goals.
In the defensive phase, Genoa has conceded the joint-second-highest number of goals, 21. With an xG against per match of 1.47, Genoa should have conceded closer to 14 goals. The 21 they have conceded shows a significant weakness at the back that needs to be fixed ahead of the trip to Parma on Monday.
Our football bet predictions show that Alberto Gilardino, Genoa’s manager, needs to shuffle the pack to improve his side’s defensive and offensive balance if they are to stand a chance of getting something from their trip to Parma.
However, being last in the standings also takes a psychological toll on players and staff, which could lead to a further decrease in player performance.
Bet hereParma will miss the services of striker Mateusz Kowalski and defender Alessandro Circati, who both have cruciate ligament tears. This will impact their balance in defense and attack.
Genoa, on the other hand, will miss forwards Mario Balotelli, David Ankeye, and Vitinha, with attacking midfielder Ruslan Malinovsky also missing with injury. This will further blunt Genoa’s attacking threat.
Based on these absences and the current form trajectories of both sides, free football predictions on 22Bet show that this match is likely to end with honors even, with neither side likely to be on the scoresheet.
Parma and Genoa are struggling in attacking areas. However, Genoa are especially poor in their attack, with just seven goals in 10 matches. Parma will be comfortable thwarting their attacks and thus bolstering their chances of keeping a clean sheet.
