Parma vs Torino Prediction & Betting Tips (29 September)

Last year, Parma remained under the threat of relegation all season, evidenced by his 16th place in Serie A with 5 points ahead of the red zone. This summer, the leaders installed Carlos Cuesta 30 years old on the bench, who was one of the assistants of Mikel Arteta in Arsenal. The beginnings of the young Spanish technician prove to be chissed so far. Indeed, the teammates of the Bernabé community have not yet won and today occupy 18th in the ranking. Beaten on the lawns of Juventus 2-0 and Cagliari 2-0, they otherwise shared the points with Atalanta 1-1 and Cremonese last weekend 0-0.

Hanted up in the soft belly of the ranking for a few years, the Torino hopes to display an progression this season. Marco Baroni's men are currently 12th from Serie A with 4 points taken in 3 games. Surprised in the interior lair during the 1st day 5-0, they then stood up to the Fiorentina 0-0 before creating the surprise by winning on the field of Roma 0-1. Last weekend, the Torino drew heavily against the Atalanta at home 0-3. 

Historically, this fixture has leaned toward tight margins, and the current form of both sides suggests another cagey affair. Parma’s home advantage could prove pivotal, especially if Bernabé and Almqvist can dictate tempo and exploit Torino’s occasional lapses in wide areas. Torino, on the other hand, will look to press early and capitalize on set pieces, where Biraghi’s delivery and Maripan’s aerial threat could unsettle Parma’s backline. With both teams struggling to keep clean sheets—Parma with none and Torino with just two—it’s likely that defensive errors will shape the outcome.

Expect a tense battle with moments of individual brilliance tipping the scales. Our prediction leans toward a 2-1 victory for Parma, driven by a late surge and home crowd momentum. Pellegrino and Cutrone could be decisive in front of goal, while Torino may find consolation through Simeone’s poaching instincts. It won’t be pretty, but it will be passionate—two teams fighting not just for points, but for belief in a season that’s already testing their mettle.
