Parma-Roma, the Giallorossi (in form) aim for a hat-trick to stay alive. Lineups and TV schedules

Parma 15 February 2025 - Round number twenty-five in Serie A, the ranking has now almost definitively been defined between those fighting for Europe, the Scudetto and those who instead have to survive in the relegation zone. Parma by now he knows his fate, third from last in the last three matchdays, he needs to get back to winning and he needs to do it immediately to avoid complicating the standings too much.

On the other hand, however, the Roma, unlike the dukes, is perhaps experiencing its best moment since the beginning of the year and certainly does not want to stop here. The appointment is set at the Ennio Tardini stadium, in the afternoon of Sunday February 16, where the match will kick off at 18pm. In the first leg, the Capitoline team won with a clear 5-0 at the Olimpico.

Parma in trouble

The Emilian team is in great difficulty. From the point of view of the game, the team of Pecchia has never failed to give its best, but it is lacking solidity and above all performance in terms of points. From the mid-table area, in the last two and a half months, the yellow and blues have fallen in the standings. In fact, since December there have been just 2 victories in 11 league games played, while the points have dropped even more in the last 6, with just 2 draws to improve the situation of the crusaders. In particular, the two defeats suffered in the last two, in direct clashes against Cagliari e Lecce respectively. Now there is the chance to start again in front of your own fans, that is, the field where the Parma he achieved results with more consistency, against a team that, except for the last few matches played, has shown significant inconsistency away from home.

Giallorossi aim for hat-trick

It is clear however that the Giallorossi will not want to offer their scalp for the salvation of the Emilians. On the contrary, in the championship Roma is coming off two consecutive away wins, after an entire championship lived without them, and is aiming for a hat-trick to keep the pressure high on the rivals ahead of her in the standings. Claudio Ranieri strongly believes in the possibility of returning to Europe through the championship and every point is now precious to re-enter a discussion that for now has always been closed to the top eight in the standings. Not only that, this week the Giallorossi are coming off a burning draw in Oporto, where against the Dragoes they stopped at 1-1 in a challenge also characterized by the terrible direction of the referee. There is a lot of frustration for the match played in Portugal and winning immediately is undoubtedly the best cure, so as to also prepare as best as possible for the return match where the permanence in the race in this edition of theEuropa League.
