Parma will host Como at the Ennio Tardini on Saturday in another round of the 2024-25 Serie A campaign. The home side have picked up impressive results and important points in recent outings and look set to beat the drop under new head coach Cristian Chivu as they sit 16th in the table, seven points clear of the relegation zone with four games left to play.
They played out a 2-2 draw away at Lazio last time out, with winter signing Jacob Ondrejka scoring a brace to hand the Crociati a two-goal lead early in the second half before veteran winger Pedro came off the bench to score a double of his own and rescue a point for Lazio.
Como, meanwhile, have enjoyed an outstanding return to the top-flight this season and are now pushing for a remarkable top-half league finish. They picked up a narrow but well-deserved 1-0 home win over Genoa in their last match, with Gabriel Strefezza scoring the game-winner just before the hour mark.
The visitors sit 11th in the Serie A standings with 42 points and will be looking to extend their winning streak this weekend.
