LAST MEETING

November 21, 2010: Parma 1-1 Lazio

The Gialloblu jumped out to a 23rd minute lead courtesy of veteran striker Hernan Crespo before Sergio Floccari levelled matters on the cusp of half-time.

There were chances for both teams in the second half but the goalkeepers stood their ground and the spoils were shared.

PROBABLE LINE-UPS

Lazio: Muslera; Lichtsteiner, Stendardo, Dias, Garrido; Brocchi, Ledesma; Gonzalez, Floccari, Sculli, Zarate

Parma: Mirante; Zaccardo, Lucarelli, Paletta; Valiani, Galloppa, Dzemaili, Modesto; Candreva; Giovinco, Amauri

Prediction
Parma can only boast one win from their past ten games and last weekend's 2-1 setback against Bari cost Pasquale Marino his job. Franco Colomba will be tasked with trying to steer the ship away from the relegation zone but Lazio won't be in a sympathetic move. They need all three points in the race for a Champions League spot and will put the Gialloblu to the sword.
