Parma host Genoa in Serie A, with neither side having won a league match this season and both mired at the bottom of the table. This is a game where both teams need points to steady their situation. Parma lost 1-2 in their last match and have not won any of their last five. Genoa won 1-0 in the cup recently but are also without a league win, and their 1-4 defeat was the day their defence fell apart worst. Looking at the averages over the last 10 matches, Parma clearly have less possession (41.5% versus 48.7%) and concede about one more shot on target per game than their opponents. The two teams have met and finished 0-0 twice in their last meetings, and across 100 matches the result was a draw 31 times. This points to a game where both sides are cautious, with the first half likely a period of feeling each other out, but in the second half, as the need for points weighs heavier, the game should open up with more chances than the first period.
