Parma vs Fiorentina prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2025-12-26 11:30.
[p]Fiorentina will be eager to follow up their maiden Serie A victory this term with another success here against fellow strugglers Parma. Â [/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Parma spent Christmas just two points clear of the drop zone, and may have been grateful for some time off to try and get their heads around how they contrived to lose 1-0 to nine-man Lazio in their last outing. Carlos Cuesta’s men have won only two of their last 11 matches across all competitions (D3, L6), and with no side scoring fewer than their ten goals in this Serie A season, it’s clear to see where their biggest issue lies. Nowhere has that been more prevalent than on home turf where the Crusaders have failed to score in four of their last six such league matches (D2, L4).[/p]
[p]After 15 rounds of misery, Fiorentina finally won their first Serie A game of the season last time out, thrashing ten-man Udinese 5-1! Manager Paolo Vanoli can breathe more easily as a result, but his side remain at the foot of the table and with a five-point deficit to safety. La Viola will hope the confidence gained from that long-awaited league victory can help them to rediscover their best form, but trepidation rightly remains given that they’ve lost five of their last six away matches in all competitions (D1), although they’re unbeaten in their five road games against fellow bottom-half sides this term (D4).[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
