Parma vs. Verona, fighing to stay up

Saturday afternoon is all about the fight for survival, with Cremonese vs. Genoa and Parma vs. Verona kicking off at the same time.

The home side will be looking to build on their crucial win over Bologna as they aim for back-to-back victories to strengthen their league position. Verona, meanwhile, are desperate for a win to move off the bottom of the table, having not tasted victory since December 14, their recent draw with Pisa wasn’t enough to improve their situation.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

There are 30 official precedents in Parma between the two teams: record of 13 Emilian victories (latest 1-0, Serie A 2020/21), 7 draws (latest 2-2, Serie A 2014/15) and 10 Scaligeri victories (latest 3-2, Serie A 2024/25).

DID YOU KNOW?

Before Verona-Pisa, the Scaligeri had not kept a clean sheet in a home match in Serie A since 15 September 2025 (Verona-Cremonese 0-0, 3rd matchday).

Facing at the Tardini the two teams of Serie A 2025/26 that score the fewest goals with different players: 8 for the Emilians, 7 for the Scaligeri.

Only Lecce (15) scores fewer goals than Parma (16) and Verona (18) in Serie A 2025/26.

Parma team of Serie A 2025/26 that benefits from the highest number of expulsions of opponent players (6).

In Bologna-Parma last weekend at least one expulsion was recorded for both teams: it had not happened since the 18th matchday of Serie A (Lazio-Napoli 0-2, in that case Marusic, Noslin and Mazzocchi). These are the only two matches in which this situation has occurred in Serie A 2025/26.

Parma coming off only one victory in the last 10 home matches in Serie A (Parma-Fiorentina 1-0, 27/12/2025). In the remaining 9 matches, record of 3 draws and 6 defeats.

Verona team of Serie A 2025/26 that benefits from the lowest number of opponent expulsions (0, like Lecce, Torino, Milan and Sassuolo).

Verona team of Serie A 2025/26 that concedes most goals from substitute players (8).

Verona team of Serie A 2025/26 that loses most points in the second halves compared to the results at 45' (-11).

Verona without victories for 9 matchdays of Serie A: 3 draws and 6 defeats in the period. Last victory 1-2 in Florence last 14 December.

Verona without scoring goals for 244': last signed by Orban at 24' of Verona-Udinese 1-3 last 26 January.
