🟡🔵 Parma 2 - 1 AC Milan 🔴⚫️

👉 Parma achieved a fantastic win in their Serie A Week 2 game, overcoming AC Milan on Saturday, August 24, 2024, at the Ennio Tardini Stadium. Parma is kicking off their Serie A season in a unique way, with two home games right from the start. They first faced Fiorentina, ending in a 1-1 draw. Then, they celebrated a fantastic victory over the formidable AC Milan, marking a major achievement for the team. It’s a joyous occasion for the fans, who are thrilled to see their team performing so well in Serie A after being promoted from Serie B this season.



The last Parma player to score in the first two matchdays of a Serie A season before Dennis Man was Alberto Paloschi in the 2009-10 season, when he scored against Udinese and Catania. Paloschi netted goals against Udinese and Catania during that time.

Preview before the game

Milan has found the back of the net in each of their last 16 Serie A encounters with Parma, scoring a total of 38 goals, which averages out to 2.4 goals per game. The Rossoneri have only had longer scoring streaks against two other teams in the top division: Triestina (17 matches) and Catania (18 matches). Milan boasts 29 victories against Parma in Serie A (with 14 draws and 11 losses), trailing only Roma, who have 33 wins against the Emilians in this competition. Notably, the Rossoneri are unbeaten in their last eight clashes with the Crociati, winning six and drawing two, after experiencing two consecutive losses in the 2013/14 season.

In their last two away games against Parma in Serie A, Milan emerged victorious, achieving a better record only once in the top flight against the Emilians, which was during the period from 2004 to 2006 when they secured three consecutive away wins under Carlo Ancelotti.

Following a 1-1 draw at home against Fiorentina, this will mark the first occasion that Parma begins a Serie A season with two home matches. The Dukes have not drawn both of their opening games in a top-flight season since the 2001/02 campaign, when Ulivieri was the coach.

Milan started this season with a draw, but over the last 12 Serie A seasons, they have always managed to secure at least one win in their first two matches. The last time the Rossoneri went without a win in their opening two games was in the 2011/12 season, where they drew against Lazio and lost to Napoli.

Paulo Fonseca had a draw in his first Serie A match as Milan's coach. In the past 40 years, only one coach has failed to win in their first two matches with the Rossoneri: Stefano Pioli, who drew with Lecce and lost to Roma in October 2019.
