Current streaks

Recent form

AC Milan

AC Milan have shown a mixed but generally positive form in their recent fixtures, with four wins, one draw, and one loss in their last six matches. The Rossoneri have demonstrated resilience in cup competitions, securing victories against rivals Inter Milan and Juventus in the Super Cup. Their league form, however, has been less consistent, as reflected by their current 8th position in Serie A. Milan have been involved in several high-scoring encounters, notably the 3-2 win against Inter in the Super Cup, contributing to their impressive average of 2.67 total goals per game. Defensively, the team have room for improvement, having kept only one clean sheet in their last six matches and conceding in 67% of these games. Despite their mid-table position, Milan's recent form suggests they are capable of competing with top teams, as evidenced by their Champions League victory against Girona and their Super Cup success.

Parma

Parma's recent form has been inconsistent, with the team struggling to find consistent results in their last six matches. The Gialloblu have managed only one win in this period, accompanied by two draws and three losses. A particularly concerning result was their heavy 5-0 defeat away to AS Roma, which significantly contributed to their poor goal difference of -6. Defensively, Parma have been vulnerable, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game and keeping just one clean sheet in their last six outings. Their attacking output has also been lacklustre, with only 0.83 goals scored per game on average. This patchy form has left Parma in a precarious 16th position in Serie A, with 20 points from 21 games, suggesting they may be in danger of relegation if their performances don't improve.

Recent home/away form

AC Milan

AC Milan have shown mixed form at home recently, with their last six matches resulting in three wins and three draws. The Rossoneri have been particularly strong defensively, conceding only four goals in these six games and keeping two clean sheets. Their most impressive performance came in a Coppa Italia match against Sassuolo, where they netted an impressive six goals. Despite their unbeaten run, Milan have struggled to secure victories in Serie A, drawing their last three league matches at home. Interestingly, 67% of their recent home games have seen both teams score, whilst the same percentage have finished with under 2.5 goals. Milan's goal-scoring record has been respectable, averaging 1.83 goals per game, though this figure is boosted significantly by their 6-1 thrashing of Sassuolo.

Parma

Parma have been struggling in their recent away fixtures, managing only one win in their last six matches on the road. Their away form has been particularly poor, with three losses in their last four outings. The Crociati have experienced a significant defensive challenge, conceding a whopping 12 goals in these six games, including a heavy 5-0 defeat to AS Roma. This thrashing, along with a 3-1 loss to Inter Milan, highlights their vulnerability against stronger opposition. Despite these setbacks, Parma have shown some resilience, securing draws against tough opponents like Juventus and Torino. Their goal-scoring record away from home has been underwhelming, netting just five times in six matches, with their only away victory coming in a 2-1 win against Venezia. The team's overall away performance reflects their league position, sitting precariously in 16th place with a negative goal difference.
