Match Overview
Parma will host Juventus at the Stadio Ennio Tardini on April 22, 2025, in Round 33 of the Serie A season. While Parma sits in 16th place and is trying to avoid relegation, Juventus is firmly in 4th, pushing for a Champions League qualification spot. The difference in quality and form is noticeable — Juventus has only lost three games all season, while Parma has struggled with just 5 wins in 32 matches.
Parma has been tough to beat at home, grinding out multiple draws recently, but they’ve also failed to score in 9 games this season. Juventus, on the other hand, comes into this clash with better momentum, scoring 49 goals so far and conceding just 30 — showing solid offensive and defensive balance. The Bianconeri’s depth will likely play a role in dictating the match pace, even with several key injuries.
Team Key Players
Parma:
- Zion Suzuki (GK) – The young goalkeeper has grown into a key figure with several crucial saves this season.
- Adrián Bernabé (CM) – A midfield engine capable of threading dangerous passes and building plays from deep.
- Ange-Yoan Bonny (ST) – One of the few attacking sparks in Parma’s low-scoring frontline.
Juventus:
- Dušan Vlahović (ST) – The Serbian striker leads Juventus’s line with strength and precision, being a consistent goal threat.
- Manuel Locatelli (CM) – Orchestrates midfield control and transitions, offering both defensive solidity and build-up quality.
- Teun Koopmeiners (RWB) – Contributes in both ends of the pitch with his high work rate, providing width and defensive cover.
Match Pick: Over 2.5 Goals
Juventus’s attacking depth and Parma’s shaky defense point to a game with goals. Parma has conceded 51 times this season, while Juventus has scored nearly 1.5 goals per match. Even with some injuries, Juventus should be able to find the net more than once, and Parma at home may grab one back.
