Team News

Parma Calcio 1913
AC Milan
  • Enrico Delprato will likely start at centre-back on Saturday.
  • Álvaro Morata has been ruled out with an injury until after the international break.
  • Noah Okafor is expected to replace him, with Theo Hernández and Tijjani Reijnders also starting too.

Prediction

  • Parma were very unlucky to walk away with just a point after an impressive performance against Fiorentina in their league opener on Saturday.
  • AC Milan's impactful subs helped Paulo Fonseca to avoid an unpleasant home defeat against Torino, as the Rossoneri rescued a late point after being 2-0 down in the second half.
  • Parma are very good in attacking transitions and could try to start off on the front foot with a high press, which will test AC Milan's ability to play out from the back.
  • At the same time, when attacking higher up the pitch, the visitors will need to have a good defensive balance in order to counterpress effectively, unlike what they often did last season.
  • While there are some defensive concerns, the Rossoneri's front four can definitely thrive if the team is able to play through the press and break away in open space.
