- Parma form: Parma have won one, drawn one, and lost three of their last five matches.
- Torino form: Torino have won two, drawn one, and lost two of their last five games.
Don’t expect fireworks when Torino and Parma meet
Torino come into their trip to Parma as favorites with a slightly better record in Serie A 2026/2027 than the home side, but we won't be rushing to place any bets on this fixture. Parma are 18th in the table with four points from six games, while Torino are 12th with seven, but the odds suggest that the visitors are the side with the edge in this encounter.
Toro are 2.42 for the win against Parma's 2.94 and the draw at 3.15, but the last head-to-head record between the two sides and the form of both clubs over the last month makes it hard to see Torino running away with this contest.
Torino have failed to win on their last two away trips to Parma and the only time these two met in Serie A 2025/2026 ended in a 4-1 win for Torino. The overall head-to-head, however, stands at one win apiece, and two draws after four meetings so it's hard to justify the visitors being favorites.
Toro to edge it in closely-fought match
Recent form
Parma have been in mixed to poor form since the start of the season, but their two most recent games in Serie A 2026/2027 show some bite. Parma's two most recent games in Serie A 2026/2027 were a 2-1 home win over Genoa and a 3-0 away defeat to Inter. Torino have been more consistent, but also a little up and down over their previous five games.
Tactical battle
We think that Ignazio Abate's structured 4-3-3, which looks to build up in possession and press in specific areas of the field, will clash with Parma's high-regain, fast-transition style, so the key to this match will be the battle in midfield.
Key players and markets
Torino to edge it looks the best play, but at the prices on offer under 2.5 goals at 1.6 seems to fit the script best for a tense tactical game, as opposed to a shootout.
- Toro drew 1-1 away at Bologna before beating Udinese 2-1 at home.
- Alberto Gilardino's team, who have scored just four goals in their last five, will look to David Romero to get the ball forward, and he has two goals in his first four Serie A 2026/2027 games.
- Kulenovic has also been lively for Toro, notching two of their five goals in their last five, but Che Adams is their main man in front of goal with two in three.
