Parma v Juventus: safety vs Champions League

Sunday’s programme of Serie A matchday 23 concludes at the Tardini. Parma, following goalless draws against Napoli and Genoa, suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat away to Atalanta, as they remain in the large group of teams battling at the bottom. Juventus, on the other hand, go into it buoyed by their win over Napoli and are looking for back-to-back victories that would see them climb the table.
