Parma – Bologna

Parma host Bologna at the Stadio Ennio Tardini with both sides desperate for points as the season stalls. The home side sit 18th with just four points from one win, one draw and five defeats, while the visitors occupy 15th place, holding five points after a win and two stalemates. Parma’s fragile defence has leaked 13 goals compared with Bologna’s ten, yet the visitors have scored marginally more, 6 to 4. A clash between the two struggling clubs could prove pivotal in the battle to climb out of the lower reaches of the table.
