Match Preview
Round 26 of the Serie A season brings a compelling clash as AC Milan host Parma on 22 February 2026 at the iconic San Siro Stadium. Milan come into this game as strong favourites, sitting near the top of the table with a positive goal record. Parma arrive as underdogs but have shown moments of resilience against bigger teams in recent seasons.
Milan will be aiming to build momentum after a recent draw with Como that left fans wanting more attacking impact. Their attacking stars including Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leão provide pace and goal threat, while the midfield’s creativity often unlocks tight defences.
Parma, currently mid-table, have been tough to score against at times and can spring surprises if allowed space on the break. Their defensive organisation and counterattacks will be key if they want to take anything from this stern away test.
Tactical balance will be important: Milan’s ability to dominate possession versus Parma’s compact shape could define how the scoreline ultimately unfolds.
