For Parma, it is shaping up to be a relegation battle this season, whereas Udinese will try to reaffirm their mid-table claim. While both have chances for more, they have yet to show any signs that they can actually achieve it.
Parma Team News
It has been a good few weeks for Parma, who managed to come behind against AC Milan and squeeze out a 2-2 draw, which was followed by a crucial home win against another team threatened with relegation – Hellas Verona. While not looking much at first, these points could prove invaluable in Parma’s bid to remain in Italy’s top flight. But looking at the team’s results, we can make some takeaways. Firstly, Parma has overcome the dry spell that befell them earlier throughout the season, as they have now scored in their last 4 league matches. Secondly, despite scoring, they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in any of the aforementioned 4 games, all of which have produced over 2.5 goals.
Udinese Team News
Udinese is 4 points ahead of Parma, which is not a big gap at all, considering we are nearing the halfway mark of the season and there is still a lot of football to be played. Still, the team is much more likely to hover around a mid-table finish than to be involved in any sort of relegation battle. Udinese’s results across its last 5 Serie A fixtures are 3 losses and 2 victories. The 3 defeats, however, did come against the likes of Roma, Juventus and Bologna, all of which are sides that are contesting the UCL spots. Udinese’s victories came against teams that are lower-placed than themselves – Lecce and Atalanta. The team has also managed to score in 4 of its last 5 Serie A travels.
Head-to-Head-Games
Udinese have an advantage in the recent H2H with 3 wins from the last 5 encounters with Parma. Three of those 5 fixtures produced goals from both sides, and coincidentally, they also featured over 3.5 goals.

Parma vs Udinese Betting Prediction
I am going with both teams to score for this game. Parma’s matches tend to see goals from them and their opponents, while Udinese also seems comfortable finding the net while away from home. Given that both sides will want the points here, Parma to distance themselves from the relegation zone in light of some recent successes and Udinese to establish themselves in the mid-table, I think that it is highly likely we will see a game where both Parma and Udinese score.
