Inter is yet to win their first Serie A game in 2019. Will they be able to beat Parma on Saturday's clash?

What has been Parma and Inter's form ahead of this game?

Parma has won only one of their last four games, with two losses and a draw completing their tally. The good news for Roberto D'Aversa's men come when they realize that their last match ended in a 3-3 draw against the league-leading Juventus. I Gialloblu's last win came almost two weeks ago, when they walked away from Udinese's home with a 2-1 win.

Inter gets to this game on one of their worst forms of the season. The nerazzurri side is now 20 points behind Juventus, and their spot in the Serie A is in serious jeopardy, as Roma is now two points behind Spalletti's men. Inter has failed to score a single goal in 2019, having lost two games with a 1-0 score and drawn their remaining clash without finding the back of the net.

What is Parma and Inter's position in the Serie A tournament?

Parma holds the 12th spot in the competition after winning 8 of their 22 previous fixtures. D'Aversa's men have allowed 30 goals so far, which leaves them with a -6 in the goal difference department. Speaking about home games, Parma has failed to win any of their four most recent matches at Ennio Tardini Stadium, with their two most recent fixtures ending in losses.

Inter gets to this match in 3rd place, having won 40 points in 22 games. Despite their recent woeful form, Inter is still the second best defense, having conceded 16 goals in the tournament. In the event of a loss, combined with a win by Roma, the nerazzurri would finish in fourth place of the Italian top flight.
