Parma vs Palermo Team News & Predicted Lineups

Parma are coming into this game completely free of injury or issues.

Emanuele Valeri and Zion Suzuki recently signed for the hosts and are expected to start this game. This alongside Venezuelan centre-back Yordon Osorio who recently returned from his break following Copa America.

Unfortunately it isn’t the same luck for Palermo however who will most likely be without Matteo Brunori who has an injury to his knee currently, as well as new signing Francisco Di Bartolo who suffered a foot injury in training.

However expect a start for Hellas Verona loanee Thomas Henry up front and a potential return for Valerio Verre who rejoined the club this summer for the third time after his release from Sampdoria.

Parma - Zion Suzuki, Enrico Del Prato, Yordan Osorio, Botond Balogh, Emanuele Valeri, Wylan Cyprien, Nahuel Estevez, Dennis Man, Simon Sohm, Valentin Mihaila, Ange-Yoan Bonny

Palermo - Alfred Gomis, Simon Graves, Alessio Buttaro, Fabio Lucioni, Salim Diakite, Jacopo Segre, Alexis Blin, Filippo Ranocchia, Kristoffer Lund, Federico Di Francesco, Thomas Henry

Parma vs Palermo Player To Watch - Dennis Man

If you followed the Euros this summer Dennis Man is surely a play you have heard of. The Romanian international returned to his club Parma following a Euros campaign where he played 4 games and registered 2 assists. He was certainly one of the starring players for Romania.

Last season at Parma he managed 13 goals and 7 assists in 35 games. Something he will look to improve on but his confidence following the Euros is sure to be high. If he can continue his good performances from the summer he could be in for an interesting year and a fantastic game in this one.

Parma vs Palermo Prediction

Both sides come into this game in good form. We wouldn’t expect either of the sides to run away with this one. However, our team of tipping experts have decided that home advantage and their ability when it comes to scoring goals may mean Parma are just too much for Palermo to handle.

Wins against Galatasaray and Atalanta in pre-season will take them into this game beaming with confidence. They should be able to get the better of this Palermo side who won’t go down without a fight.

We have decided that the best value tip in this game is certainly backing Parma To Win at odds of 19/20. A £10 bet potentially returning up to £19.50.

Where To Watch Parma vs Palermo

This game is set to get underway on the 11th August 2024 live from the Stadio Ennio Tardini in Parma with kickoff set to get underway at 17:30. However, unfortunately, this game is unavailable to watch in the UK.
