Parma
- Parma sit 14th in Serie A with 39 points from 33 games, while Pisa sit bottom in 20th after picking up just 18 points this season.
- In stark contrast to Pisa’s winless away record of 0-8-8 in 2025-2026, Parma’s home record in Serie A this term is (W3, D6, L7) from 16 games.
- The hosts have failed to win any of their last two home games (D1, L1), but have also avoided defeat in their last three overall (D2, W1).
Pisa
- Pisa are without a win on the road in Serie A this season, drawing eight and losing eight of their 16 games.
- Pisa have lost their last four Serie A games and have picked up just one win from their last five (W1, L4).
- In his short reign at Pisa so far, Oscar Hiljemark has gone back to basics and looks to be favouring a three-man defense and counter-attacking play.
- Pisa average 1.00 goal per away game in 2025-2026, scoring a total of 16 times on the road.
Head-to-Head
AC Parma have won three consecutive H2H encounters, including a 1-0 away victory four months ago in Serie A.
Key Players
- Mateo Pellegrino has been Parma’s primary source of goals in Serie A this year with eight in 32 appearances, but the visitors’ most recent goals have come from Antonio Caracciolo’s left wing - the forward has scored two of Pisa’s last four.
- Parma’s style under Carlos Cuesta is more pragmatic and they will look to control the shape and tempo of Saturday’s game with a disciplined, compact shape and a build-up from the back which requires structure and positional discipline.
Betting Insights
Parma can be supported at 2.17 for the win, while the over 2.5 goals bet is at 2.39 and both teams to score is 1.98 .
Prediction
- We’re with the home team to edge this one, although we’re expecting both sides to get on the scoresheet in what could be a relatively open and lively game.
- The home side have a much better head-to-head record than Pisa and the away side are still winless on the road this Serie A season, so the momentum and structure of Parma should see them home in this one.
