Parma are unbeaten in six at home
"Many are predicting this as an away win, but I think it could prove tricky for Juventus...
Juventus travel to Parma tonight in Italy's Serie A knowing that a win will return them to the top of the table. The market has them odds-on but Paul Robinson thinks that Parma will be no pushovers.
Parma are 13th in the league with 27 points from 21 matches. The main reason for their lowly standing is their away form; six losses, three draws and just two wins. Italian legend Roberto Donadoni has his side in better nick at Stadio Ennio Tardini as their record this season is; WLWLWWDDDW. That run includes an impressive 2-1 victory over high flying Udinese so they are more than capable of raising their game against top level opponents.
Juventus are flying this campaign and are second in the table after collecting 45 points from 21 fixtures. The Old Lady are in irresistible form this season and are yet to taste defeat in Serie A. Away from Turin, Antonio Conte's men have won their last two, but they were both against teams in the bottom six, and before that they failed to pick up the full three points in their previous trio of matches.
Many are predicting this as an away win, but I think it could prove much trickier for Juventus than expected. Parma are very hard to beat at home and Juventus have a habit of drawing games on the road. The last match between the two ended in a 2-1 win for Parma and while they might not be able to repeat that tonight, I can't see them losing. Odds of [1.8] are too short for my money and that's why I have to make Juventus my lay of the day.
