Juve aiming to make it two wins from two against Parma

Juventus make their debut at the Allianz Stadium as they host Parma on Matchday 2 of Serie A. Spalletti’s side are looking for a second consecutive win ahead of next week’s clash with Milan, while Parma, who were beaten at home by Cagliari, are chasing their first points of the season.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

There have been 34 previous competitive meetings between the two sides in Turin: 23 wins for Juventus (most recently 2-0 in Serie A 2025/26), 8 draws (most recently 2-2 in Serie A 2024/25) and 3 wins for Parma (most recently 4-1 in Serie A 2010/11).

Juventus have scored in all 34 of their previous home meetings with Parma: the Bianconeri have netted 79 goals in total.

Juventus were Parma’s first-ever opponents in Serie A: on 9 September 1990, the Bianconeri won 2-1 at the Tardini, with goals from Napoli and Roberto Baggio from the penalty spot. Parma’s first-ever Serie A goal was scored by Melli, also from a penalty.

DID YOU KNOW?

Juventus ranked third for total shots on Matchday 1: the hosts attempted 19 shots in their opening match of the season against Frosinone, with only Sassuolo (20) and Como (22) recording more.

Parma have gone 219 minutes without scoring away from home: their last away goal was scored by Elphege in the 51st minute of Udinese-Parma 0-1 on 18 April in Serie A.

Parma were one of 5 teams to receive no yellow cards on Matchday 1: no Parma player was booked, with Atalanta, Como, Sassuolo and Torino also avoiding cautions. The visitors were also the 4th-most disciplined team in last season’s Serie A, receiving 59 yellow cards in total.

COACHES and PLAYERS

This will be the 2nd official meeting between Luciano Spalletti and Carlos Cuesta: in their only previous encounter, the Juventus coach recorded a 4-1 win at the Tardini in Serie A 2025/26.

All 11 of Carlos Cuesta’s Serie A wins so far have come by a one-goal margin: 7 by a 1-0 scoreline and 4 by 2-1.

Gleison Bremer scored Juventus’ first goal of the 2026/27 Serie A season: Parma goalkeeper Corvi is one of the 4 goalkeepers the Brazilian defender has scored against most often since moving to Italy, with 2 goals, level with Donnarumma, Silvestri and Cragno.

Francisco Conceicao has provided an assist in each of his last 2 Serie A appearances: he set up a goal on the final Matchday of last season and assisted Bremer in Frosinone-Juventus 0-1 on 23 August. It is the second time he has recorded assists in consecutive Serie A matches, having also done so in Juventus-Sassuolo 1-1 and Juventus-Genoa 2-0 in March and April.
