SudTirol-Parma and Catanzaro-Como are valid for the 32nd day of the Serie B championship: where to watch them on TV and streaming, probable formations and predictions
Despite the home defeat against Catanzaro last Monday, Parma remained well and quietly at the top of the Serie B standings with a seven-point lead over third place. So we confirm, absolutely, what we have been saying up to the moment: promotion is only a matter of time.
Also because against SudTirol, Pecchia’s lineup definitely starts as favorites. The values on the field are clearly different and, moreover, the Bolzano players showed little against Como last week. Yes, it’s true: those are not the games that a team that wants and needs to save itself must win. But neither is turning in like that with little desire to fight.
And it will be one of the most important challenges of the round that between Catanzaro, precisely, and Roberts’ Lombard team. Both won, they did it convincingly, and if Como is now second in the standings, behind Parma, but with Cremonese and Venezia attached, the Calabrians on the other side dream of getting closer to the direct promotion zone. The gap is six points from the second place, and therefore with all the matches still there is largely attainable. And the Giallorossi, who will be propelled by a fiery Ceravolo, have the big hit in their ropes.
The SudTirol-Parma Prediction
Parma should get back to winning ways after the stop against Catanzaro at home. Pecchia’s team wants to try to close the books as far as direct promotion is concerned, so they will put the unexpected defeat behind them. No, we have no doubts.
The likely lineups
SUDTIROL (3-5-2): Poluzzi; Giorgini, Scaglia, Masiello; Molina, Tait, Kurtic, Davi, Rover; Casiraghi, Odogwu.
PARMA (4-2-3-1): Chichizola; Delprato, Osorio, Circati, Coulibaly; Estevez, Hernani; Man, Bernabé, Mihaila; Bonny.

The prediction of Catanzaro-Como
A beautiful match, which will give emotions and which Catanzaro has the cards to take home. The Calabrians come from the external coup on the field of the leader and daydream of the double jump in category after last year’s one from C to B. And these three points could prove crucial.
