Command Analysis

Parma Calcio 1913

Current form
After a very strong season last year, where they managed to win Serie B, Parma placed their main bet on the core of the team, which earned a ticket to the elite, only locally strengthening the squad. Fabio Pecchia, who has held this position for two years, remained at the helm. In the summer, the Crusaders made two serious transfers, strengthening the position of goalkeeper and the center of the field, spending almost 20 million euros on Mandel Keita and Zion Suzuki.
Having lost 0:1 to Palermo in the Italian Cup, Parma" target="_blank">http://parmacalcio1913.com/">Parma started the championship with a home match against Fiorentina, in which they were not considered clear contenders for points. However, the Crusaders opened the scoring and had every chance to double the advantage, but they lacked experience. In the second half, the Violets bounced back and snatched a 1:1 draw – such a result can be called positive.
The first victory of the season was sensational and extremely unexpected. In the home match against Milan, Parma looked very solid and not only imposed a fight on the Rossoneri, but also used all the weaknesses of the opponent as effectively as possible, winning 2:1 at home. The match against Napoli in the last round could have ended in victory, but the team's newcomer Zion Suzuki let them down, earning a red card at the end.
With no substitutes available, defender Enrico Del Prato was sent into goal, and he let in two goals from the Neapolitans, but neither of them was the fault of the newly-minted goalkeeper.

Zion Suzuki is suspended. Adrian Benedychak and Matias Estevez remain injured.

Udinese

Current form
Last season, Udinese was one step away from relegation – the fate of the elite was decided in the last round, where they managed to beat Frosinone 1:0 and stay in the elite. The management drew conclusions – in the summer, Kosta Runjaic was appointed head coach, Alexis Sanchez returned to Udine, whose experience should have helped the team avoid getting involved in a fight for survival.
However, the Chilean suffered a serious injury before the start of the season and was out for a long time. However, the loss of the veteran has not affected the results yet – Udinese" target="_blank">http://www.udinese.it/">Udinese thrashed Avellino 4:0 in the Cup, and started the championship with a rather honorable 1:1 away draw against Bologna. The Zebras got their first victory of the season in the second round, beating Lazio 2:1 at home.
After such a bright start, Udinese were considered clear favourites in the home match against Como, who had just returned to Serie A. They managed to justify this status quite easily – the Zebras won with a score of 1:0 and ended up in fourth place in the table. Florian Thauvin became the new leader of the team, having scored two goals and made two assists at the start of the season.

Alexis Sanchez and Gerard Deulofeu are injured.

2.85Tip and bets
Parma has been showing bright football at the start of the championship – it knows how to play on counterattacks, has no problems with implementation, and when necessary, it acts quite confidently in positional attacks, although it prefers to play second fiddle for the most part. Today, the Crusaders will probably try to rehabilitate themselves for the defeat in Naples, and it makes sense to expect the hosts to be active in attack.
Udinese have found their game and look more than confident, experienced players have managed to get into shape, there are decent options for rotation, or strengthening the game with substitutions. It should not be difficult for the Zebras to respond to an opponent like Parma.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Betting Tip - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.79
Bet on the outcome
Parma lost for the first time in the championship last round, conceding two goals at the end with a field player in goal. Such a painful defeat may well have a negative impact on the mood of the team; it often happens that a mid-table team that has caught its stride after such a setback ends up in a crisis – with all due respect, the Crusaders are not even up to the league’s mid-table team in terms of player selection.
Udinese, in turn, is much better equipped, with quite experienced players, the team is in excellent shape, improving from match to match. It makes sense to give preference to the "zebras" in such a match, who are objectively stronger today, although at the same time one should certainly not expect an easy walk.
The bet is Udinese's victory. This outcome is offered with a coefficient of 3.17
Bet on corners
Parma will probably spend a lot of time attacking at home, but the Crusaders are unlikely to be able to play the entire match as number one, Udinese will clearly respond, and it makes sense to count on a large number of corners.
Bet - total over 9.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.65
