AC Milan vs Parma

Parma are still struggling
Pasquale Marino’s men are struggling for consistency, as has been the case for much of the season. As things stand, Parma are 15th in the league with just 26 points to their name. Going into round 25 of the Serie A, just four points separate I Ducali from the relegation zone. Marino’s men are far from being secure and it will require tremendous hard work from the team to salvage the season.
Adding to the concerns is the fact that Parma have one of the worst away records in the league. The Ducali have played 11 away games, of which they have lost seven and won just two. The trip to the San Siro will be a real test of Marino’s calibre. However, a victory tonight - unlikely as it might be - will bring renewed confidence to the squad.

Rossoneri looking to end the slump
AC Milan started February with a significant lead at the top of the Serie A table, but consecutive draws in their last two games have cut their lead to just three points. With Napoli and Inter Milan racking up victories in spectacular fashion, Massimiliano Allegri will now be looking anxiously over his shoulder.
Furthermore, the Rossoneri are set to embark on a gruelling schedule over the next few weeks. They are set to play Tottenham Hotspur twice, Chievo Verona away from home, Napoli at home and perennial rivals Juventus in Turin in the space of 22 days. Tonight’s game against Parma is likely to be the easiest game of the schedule and anything less than three points will be nothing short of failure.
