Inter vs Parma prediction

THE FORECAST

Inter are clear favourites at home, averaging 3.0 goals scored per game and sitting second in Serie A, though Chivu's confirmed rotation plans ahead of a Champions League fixture in three days — with Akanji rested, Provedel debuting in goal, and Lautaro limited — temper expectations slightly. Parma arrive decimated by injuries (ten players out) and with just four points from five games, giving a new manager his debut in the toughest possible environment. The combination of Inter's rotation risk and Parma's defensive fragility points to an Inter win but with some vulnerability, keeping the scoreline moderate rather than a rout.
