Parma vs Udinese Prediction 29 November 2025

📢 What to expect from the match between Parma and Udinese at the Ennio Tardini Stadium in the 13th round of Serie A? Although Udinese sit higher in the standings, it's Parma who come into this match in better form: the team is picking up momentum and has performed well in their last two encounters. The "Little Zebras," on the other hand, have struggled under a tough schedule. The upcoming game promises to be highly entertaining and unpredictable.

Head-to-Head

📊 The head-to-head history between Parma and Udinese includes 28 matches over the years. The "Little Zebras" hold a slight edge with 12 victories compared to Parma's 10, while 6 encounters ended in a draw. However, last season Udinese claimed both fixtures: they first secured a 3-2 away win and then reinforced their dominance at home with a 1-0 victory.

Parma Team Overview

🟡 Parma approach their upcoming match in high spirits. The team have secured 4 points from their last two fixtures, allowing them to slightly distance themselves from the relegation zone. The "Crusaders" have climbed to 15th place with 11 points, and the situation no longer appears as dire as it did a few weeks ago.

🔵 Last weekend, Parma claimed a crucial victory over Verona (2-0) – a direct rival in the battle for survival. Despite being the underdogs and playing away, the team delivered a highly competent and mature performance, outmatching their opponent in all key statistics. Notably, forward Matteo Pellegrino stood out by scoring a brace, effectively securing all three points for Parma single-handedly.

Udinese Calcio Team Overview

⚪ Unlike Parma, Udinese have struggled to find their form in recent weeks. The team faced a daunting schedule, having played against Juventus (1-3), Atalanta (0-1), Roma (0-2), and Bologna (0-3) in their last four matches. From a possible 12 points, the "Little Zebras" managed to secure only three, predictably dropping them to 10th place and significantly impacting their position in the standings.

⚫ Last weekend, Udinese hosted Bologna and delivered one of their poorest performances of the season. In the first half, they looked sharp, posing more of a threat than the "Rossoblù," and despite conceding a penalty, they maintained the upper hand in play. However, after the break, Udinese's form plummeted; they lost control in all areas and made numerous defensive errors. The 0-3 defeat was entirely justified.

Latest news

Parma

📣 Parma's head coach Carlos Cuesta, following their commanding 2-0 victory over Verona, highlighted the balance between attack and defense, as well as the team's dedication: "The most important thing is to play correctly, both in defense and attack. We took 15 shots, the team remained compact and sacrificed when needed. We know we need to improve, but we are moving in the right direction. Every player contributed. Pellegrino is an example for everyone, a top-level professional who works on every detail."

🚫 Parma are facing some minor squad issues. Matija Frigan remains unavailable, sidelined until early March due to an ACL injury. First-choice goalkeeper Zion Suzuki is recovering from a wrist fracture and is not expected back before late February. Abdoulaye N'Diaye and Alessandro Circati are anticipated to recover from a muscle injury and ankle sprain, respectively, by early December.

Udinese Calcio

📣 Udinese head coach Kosta Runjaic, following their heavy home defeat against Bologna (0-3), admitted that his team handed the victory to their opponents: "I feel very sorry for our fans. Losing 0-3 after a decent first half is too much. We gifted Bologna three goals. We gave away the ball too easily to an opponent who are in excellent form right now. We must demand much more from ourselves—analyze this match and move forward."

🚫 Udinese face almost no squad issues: only the participation of Hassane Kamara remains uncertain—the defender was unable to finish the last game due to a foot injury.

⚽️ Goal Prediction

⚽️ Goal Prediction

Parma remain among Serie A's lowest-scoring teams, with just 9 goals—only Lecce and Verona have fewer. However, the "Crusaders" have shown significant improvement in attack recently, scoring at least once in each of their last four matches. This stretch includes challenging opponents like Bologna (1-3), Roma (1-2), and Milan (2-2), all of whom rank in the top five. Despite their ongoing defensive issues, betting on both teams to score (yes) seems to be the most logical choice.

🚩 Corner Prediction

Parma also rank among Serie A's worst when it comes to corners taken, averaging just 3.1 per match—only Cremonese do worse with 2.9. The team rarely conducts prolonged positional attacks and seldom reaches the opponent's penalty area, directly impacting their corner stats. In this scenario, avoiding complex bets is wise—a wager on Parma under 5.5 corners appears to be the most straightforward and reliable option. This bet has won in 7 of the last 8 head-to-head encounters between these teams.
