*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Parma’s promising performance at home to Fiorentina last weekend (1-1) suggested the newly promoted outfit are ready to compete in Serie A this season and though they are priced as 15/4 underdogs ahead of Saturday’s test, they look like decent value in the double chance market at 11/10.

Most recent H2Hs: First meeting in three years

Parma and AC Milan haven’t locked horns since 2021. Milan are unbeaten in eight previous editions of this fixture overall.

Parma preview: Zanoli hoping to feature

Parma will be without the services of injured trio Gabriel Charpentier, Hernani and Adrian Benedyczak for their clash with Milan on Saturday. Parma were deployed in a 4-2-3-1 formation against Fiorentina, so expect them to start in a similar shape against the Rossoneri.

Predicted lineup: Suzuki (GK), Coulibaly, Balogh, Circati, Valeri, Estevez, Sohm, Man, Bernabe, Mihaila, Bonny

Inter preview: Zielinski has been ruled out

Alessandro Florenzi, Marco Sportiello and Alvaro Morata are expected to sit Saturday's game out for Milan. The Rossoneri came from two goals down to rescue a point late on at home to Torino in their Serie A opener last weekend.

Predicted lineup: Maignan (GK), Calabria, Tomori, Thiaw, Saelemaekers, Bennacer, Loftus-Cheek, Chukwueze, Pulisic, Leao, Jovic

Player to watch – Dennis Man

Romanian winger Dennis Man was in top form on the opening weekend of the new Serie A season and the wide attacker scored Parma’s goal in their 1-1 draw with Fiorentina at the Stadio Ennio Tardini.

Man can bring the nuisance factor

Dennis Man, who is a regular for the Romanian national team, looks like he’s built for top-level football and he showcased his ability against Fiorentina last weekend. The 25-year-old should be brimming with confidence following his impactful performance against La Viola and Man can be a menace again against Milan.
