The action continues in round 16 of the Italian Serie A as Parma and Hellas Verona square off at the Ennio Tardini on Sunday. Paolo Zanetti’s men head into the weekend on a run of six back-to-back away defeats and will be looking to end this poor spell.
Parma continued to struggle for consistency in the bottom half of the Serie A standings as they suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Inter Milan last Friday.
Fabio Pecchia’s side have failed to win 11 of their most recent 13 Serie A matches while losing six and picking up five draws since late August.
With 15 points from 15 matches, Parma are currently 13th in the league standings, level on points with 14th-placed Genoa.

On the other hand, Verona were left empty-handed yet again as they fell to a 4-1 thrashing at the hands of Empoli last Sunday.
Zanetti’s men have now lost four games on the bounce, conceding a staggering 13 goals and scoring just two since scraping a 3-2 victory over AS Roma on November 3.
Hellas Verona have picked up just 12 points from their 15 Serie A matches this season to sit 18th in the table, only above fellow strugglers Monza and Venezia.
