As part of the 33rd round of the Italian Serie A, a match between Parma and Juventus will take place. The meeting is scheduled, April 23. Kick-off is set for 18:30 Central European Time. I suggest a bet on the winner of this game.

Match Preview
Parma has returned to Serie A after a three-year hiatus, but has struggled to establish itself as a mid-table team. The team often appears resilient, yet can only boast five victories.
Interestingly, in the last five matches, the "Crusaders" have consistently drawn. This outcome was seen against both Inter and Fiorentina, as well as against the main outsider, Monza.
Juventus is going through a tough period, highlighted by a change of coach. Thiago Motta didn't get enough time, and his replacement, Igor Tudor, remains unbeaten so far.
Under the Croatian's leadership, the Turin side won both home matches, first defeating Genoa and then Lecce. Not the strongest opponents, so it's too early to draw conclusions. The away match against Roma ended in a draw, and with many contenders for the fourth place, it will certainly be interesting.
Match Facts
- Parma hasn't won in six consecutive matches.
- Juventus has only kept a clean sheet in one of their last five matches.
- Parma averages 1.4 goals per game when playing at home, while Juventus averages 1 goal per game when playing away.
Probable Lineups
- Parma: Suzuki, Leoni, Volyacco, Valenti, Valeri, del Prato, Bernabe, Keita, Zom, Man, Bonny.
- Juventus: Di Gregorio, Kelly, Veiga, Kalulu, McKennie, Gonzalez, Locatelli, Thuram, Yildiz, Koopmeiners, Vlahovic.
H2H
Parma has not been able to beat Juventus since 2015.
Prediction
Parma will certainly put up a fight, but Juventus must secure three points, or they risk missing out on the Champions League. I believe the visitors understand all the risks and will give it their all. My bet is on a Juventus victory.
