Parma Foggia match preview

Nine more matches of the 32nd round of Italian Serie B are going to be played on the second day of weekend and in the first of them will meet two teams that played in the third division last year. At the moment 8th-placed Parma stands a bit better as it has four points more than 12th-positioned Foggia. On top of it, their match played last autumn had ended as Parma’s sound away victory of even 3-0.

Parma

All this tells us that the team from Parma is again regarded as a favourite to win duel with Foggia, although it somewhat unexpectedly lost away in previous round to Entelle 2-0. Before that team led by manager D’Averse had won two away matches in a row, with Salernitana and Pescara, while Parma won the last time at home near the end of Januray when it defeated Novara.

We all know that just three seasons ago Parma played in the Italian elite football league but after bankruptcy it was directly relegated to the Serie D. Many believed that that the team will need a long period of time to consolidate its ranks but in just two years Parma returned to the Serie B where it is doing just fine for the time being. Let’s add that only not fully recovered midfielder Scozzarella and forwards R. insigne and Ciciretti are questionable for the Sunday’s match.

Probable lineups Parma: Frattali – Gazzola, Lucarelli, Gagliolo, Iacoponi – Dezi, Vacca, Scavone – da Cruz, Calaio, Baraye

Foggia

This is the first returnee season to the Serie B for the guests from Foggia after even 20 years of absence and many expected that Foggia will be one of main candidates for express return to the Serie C but team led by manager Stroppe is doing just fine for the time being as it occupies a place right in the middle of table. Besides, even 11 points separate them from the drop zone at the moment, while on the other hand positions that lead to the promotion play-off are just four points above.

Since their next rival occupies the eight place it can be expected that the guests from Foggia play a bit more offensively than otherwise, especially as an additional motive for the coming match will be home defeat to Parma suffered in the first part of championship. In previous round Foggia achieved a very valuable home victory over Cesena 2-1, and on Sunday we expect to see the same starting line-up, especially as unrecovered defender Zabelliis the only player questionable for the match.

Probable lineups Foggia: Guarna – Tonucci, Camporese, Loiacono – Fedato, Agnelli, Greco, Deli, Kragl – Nicastro, Mazzeo

Verdict:

Regardless that Parma is a bit better positioned in the table and that it won away Foggia last autumn by 3-0 we expect a fully open and equal match between two last year’s third division teams, given that the guests are still in the race for the promotion play-off.
