Napoli vs Parma Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | Serie A 2025-26

The previous outing between these clubs ended in a goalless draw.

SSC Napoli are now going to take on Parma for their important fixture of the 2025-26 Serie A. This is going to be an entertaining game, which will take place at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.

Gli Azzurri will be at home and this is going to be a big advantage for them. They secured a 2-2 draw against FC Internazionale Milano in their previous league outing. The Antonio Conte-led Napoli came in with a late goal and secured a point. They are still a contender for the league title and with a win, they will be looking to close down the gap for the number one spot.

The Crociati have not been very consistent with their performances. They secured a win against Lecce in their previous outing and will be looking to extend the winning run. Parma Calcio are in 14th place on the Serie A points table. They will be away from home for their next outing and this might keep them under some pressure.
