Parma
Monza
Parma hosts Monza on 6 September in Serie A Matchday 3, with both sides searching for their first points of the season. The hosts suffered a 1-0 home defeat to Cagliari in their opening fixture and have failed to score across their opening two matches. Monza arrive without a win either, but bring a stronger away record into this encounter at the Stadio Ennio Tardini.
Form and Head-to-Head
Parma's recent home form shows mixed results: two wins, four draws, and four losses in their last ten matches, averaging 0.59 goals for and 1.03 against. Monza's away record is notably stronger, with five wins, one draw, and four losses over ten trips, scoring 1.94 goals per game while conceding 1.84. The teams have met three times recently: a goalless draw in October 2021, Parma's 2-1 victory in December 2024, and a 1-1 draw in March 2025. Monza's away form masks a critical weakness: across ten previous Serie A away matches, they have never registered more than four shots on target, while conceding at least four in all ten games.
Best Bet
Parma Draw No Bet (Ф1 0) offers value given both teams' struggles for wins this season.

Odds to Watch
The Draw at 3.17 (1xBet), 3.1 (1Win), and 3.02 (Mostbet) reflects the genuine possibility of a stalemate given Parma's attacking struggles and Monza's defensive solidity away from home. Monza's away win at 3.13 (1xBet), 2.92 (1Win), and 2.99 (Mostbet) carries appeal for those backing the visitors' superior away form, though their shot-creation issues on the road remain a concern.
