| 20 | Parma | 7 | 1 | 0 | 6 | 11:17 | -6 | 3 |
A direct match for salvation! Parma living a nightmare by falling down to the very last position of the Serie A table! Yep. Parma are in the 20th position while Sassuolo also desperate for a victory to escape from the relegation zone. 1 point difference and the need to win is not an option, but “a must win.” Parma are just in disbelief finding themselves in the rock rock bottom, such a bad start since the 2006-2007 season.
Sassuolo with higher motivation after they became protagonists by stopping Juventus fast race for the Scudetto. Sassuolo managing a draw against Italy’s Champions and will look to set the tone of the game for the victory.
There is only 1 precedent Parma vs Sassuolo with Parma winning 3-1. Will Sassuolo cause the upset at the Ennio Tardini Stadium?
