Spal vs Parma Prediction & Betting tips
In the first home game, SPAL takes on the role of PhD student Parma, which it never played against. In the only season in which SPAL played in Serie B (2016/2017), Parma still played in the Lega Pro. So both teams have one thing in common: after promotion of the third level they were able to push straight into the Serie A.
SPAL:
SPAL opened its season with an away match against Bologna and immediately started in the fight against relegation. The summery acquisition Andrea Petagna started in the base, just like in the first cup match in which he made the decisive goal.
In the opening phase, SPAL goalkeeper Alfred Gomis kept his team going by saving on a good attempt by Palacio, in addition his team was fortunate when Mattiello just hit a rebound over the bar. Only at the end of the second half did the chances come for SPAL, but both Simone Missiroli and Manuel Lazzari did not get a good shot at goal.
In the second half we also saw a number of opportunities on both sides, but good opportunities remained scarce. In the end it was Jasmin Kurtic who made the decisive goal for SPAL, and from a distance of twenty meters he made a descent in the cross for the 0-1.
Parma:
For Parma it seemed to be a double party. After they were told last week not to start the competition with five penalty points due to match fixing, it also seemed to be the first victory of the season. Just before half-time, Roberto Inglese rounded off an attack and put Parma ahead of Udinese in his own home, and in the sixtieth minute, Antonino Barilla even made it 2-0 out of a rebound.
Udinese, however, was the better in the second half and managed to level it in four minutes. The 2-1 came from a penalty after Bruno Alves made a handball, the 2-2 made Seko Fofano after a chaotic situation in the sixteen. There were two good chances for Udinese to make even the winning, but Parma managed to keep the score at 2-2 and is finally happy with the point.
Parma also received good news in the field of transfer on the last day before the market closed. Former Arsenal and Roma player Gervinho comes back from China, he was transfer-free and signed for three seasons.
