The Derby dell’Emilia is set. Parma won the Serie A Week 26 on Saturday, February 22, 2025, at the Ennio Tardini Stadium in Parma, Italy. Parma secured a solid 2-0 victory over Bologna, leaving no room for doubt. Bologna, despite their energetic efforts, fell short against a well-structured and shrewd Parma team. Chivu certainly made a good debut with this win. The goals came from Bonny and Sohm, with Dennis Man also making a positive impact after coming on. Bologna, on the other hand, had a disappointing performance. In the upcoming Serie A match, Parma will take on Udinese, while Bologna will face Cagliari.
Parma bounce back after a narrow 0-1 loss to Roma, while Bologna comes into the game with momentum from a thrilling 3-2 victory over Torino.
Cristian Chivu is making his coaching debut for Parma in the match against Bologna, following the departure of former coach Fabio Pecchia.

✅Stats before the game
Bologna has gone unbeaten in their last 10 Serie A encounters with Parma, recording 4 wins and 6 draws. The last time Parma triumphed over Bologna in the top division was on December 22, 2012, when they came back to win 2-1 at the Dall’Ara, thanks to goals from Jaime Valdés and Nicola Sansone after Frederik Sörensen had initially scored for Bologna.
Bologna also secured a victory in their most recent away match against Parma, winning 3-0 on February 7, 2021, but they have yet to achieve back-to-back away wins against the Gialloblù in Serie A. In the last five derbies between teams from Emilia-Romagna in Serie A, the home side has remained unbeaten, with 2 wins and 3 draws, following a period where the away teams had claimed five victories in the previous seven matches.

In the 2025 calendar year, Parma has the unfortunate distinction of having the fewest points in Serie A, managing only two points from seven matches, a record they share with Empoli. Specifically, the Crociati have suffered four straight losses, marking the first time this has happened in the current season.
The last time they experienced five consecutive defeats in Serie A was between April and May 2021, when they lost nine matches in total. On a brighter note, Bologna (3 wins, 4 draws) is one of three teams that remain unbeaten in Serie A since the start of 2025, alongside Roma and Napoli. The Emilians are on track to avoid defeat in their first eight games of a calendar year in Serie A for the first time since 2005, when they recorded four wins and four draws.
