Juventus vs Parma team news and expert analysis
The Turin giants narrowly finished fourth the season before last. However, in 2025/2026 they were beaten by both Como and Milan, finishing sixth with 69 points, two and one point behind them respectively. Nevertheless, Spalletti, who took over during that campaign, kept his job. They have now started the season against newcomers Frosinone and managed to beat them, although they had to settle for a single goal.
The club from the Ennio Tardini returned to Serie A in 2024. Before the start of last season, Carlos Cuesta García was appointed as the new head coach, and his first experience as a manager on his own proved fairly successful: Parma collected 45 points, the same as Torino, and finished 13th on tiebreakers. This time, the Spaniard's side beat Catania 2-0 in the cup. However, in the opening league round against Cagliari, they failed to respond after conceding and suffered defeat.
The Turin side averaged 1.61 goals per match while conceding almost half as many, at 0.89. Their upcoming opponents scored just 0.74 goals per game, while Suzuki conceded only 1.21.
