Milan vs Parma prediction and betting tips on January 26, 2025

Game Prediction

On January 26, 2025, in the 22nd round of Serie A, AC Milan will face Parma. The hosts are aiming for European competition spots, while the visitors will fight for points to avoid relegation.
Our Prediction for the Match Milan vs Parma
The "Rossoneri" finished last season just behind their city rivals, Inter, in the standings. However, their lackluster European performances seemingly led to the departure of Stefano Pioli. Meanwhile, the "Crusaders" finally returned to Serie A as Serie B champions.
As a newcomer, Parma is struggling to collect enough points to move away from the relegation zone, losing nearly half of their matches. In the previous round, they played an important match against fellow promoted side Venezia, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
AC Milan had a turbulent start to the season under Paulo Fonseca, who arrived at San Siro in the summer. However, after early setbacks, he was replaced by compatriot Sérgio Conceição just before the New Year. Conceição made an immediate impact, securing the Supercoppa by defeating Juventus and Inter. However, he dropped points in his first Serie A game, drawing with Cagliari. After a 2-1 victory over Como, Milan then lost to Juventus in their next encounter. In the Champions League, they managed a narrow 1-0 win against Girona.
This season, the "Rossoneri" average nearly 1.5 goals per match while conceding one on average, with Mike Maignan in goal. Fabio Pecchia’s Parma has been decent in attack, scoring an average of 1.24 goals per game, but their defense remains a weak point, conceding 1.71 on average.
