Parma vs. Juventus: Match Prediction
At home, Parma has struggled to secure positive results this season, but the team deserves credit for playing boldly and attacking actively. The club scores regularly: in the current league campaign, Parma has failed to score in only two of their 16 home matches. Meanwhile, the team rarely avoids defensive mistakes, having kept just one clean sheet this Serie A season.
A similar pattern is observed in Juventus' away matches: the team rarely struggles in attack but also concedes frequently. In their last 13 away league games, the Turin side failed to breach the opposition's defense only twice, but in 8 of their last 9 away matches, they managed to keep a clean sheet only once.
I expect this to be a high-scoring encounter, with both teams showing their attacking prowess. My prediction: Both teams to score – Yes
