Ronaldo scores but Juventus held 1-1 at Hellas Verona Injury-hit Juventus has been held at Hellas Verona to 1-1 as its hopes of a record-extending 10th successive Serie A title took a blow
Makes two saves in draw Sepe made two saves and conceded two goals during the 2-2 draw with Spezia on Saturday.
Impact Sepe was not challenged much and was a victim of bad defense and poor luck in the draw. Sepe had good positioning and was able to command his defense, but both goals came off crosses and a breakdown in the line. Sepe's individual skill is no question here for even the best keepers would have struggled stopping both goals that were conceded. Although, this does not help his mediocre track record moving forward and is a better fade than play for now.

Finds second goal of season Karamoh scored once, took two shots (one on target), created one chance and made four tackles (three won) in the 2-2 draw with Spezia on Saturday.
Impact Karamoh was terrific to start the match and tailed off shortly after to never be found again. The forward showed his excellent pace and composure with a clinical finish to start the game in the beginning stages and was not found after. He completely disappeared after his explosive start. For the most part he is a boom-or-bust option, but he does provide more outside of shots every once in awhile. However, it is not enough to effect his average floor.

Scores fourth goal of season Hernani scored once, took one shot (one on target), created one chance, sent one cross (none accurate) and received one yellow card in the 2-2 draw with Spezia on Saturday.
Impact Hernani was average at best in the draw Saturday. The midfielder did not produce much of anything and got rather lucky with his goal to give Parma a two-goal lead in the early stages of the match. Hernani does typically generate stats in bunches and this performance can be considered an outlier when looking at recent history. He is a valuable streaming option covering multiple areas of the pitch when he is in form.

Gathers second assist of season Gagliolo assisted once, created two chances, made three tackles (two won) and received one yellow card during the 2-2 draw with Spezia on Saturday.
Impact Gagliolo was excellent in the draw Saturday. The defender continued his stellar play on the back-line and happened to get an assist as a bonus. Gagliolo is known for his defensive play and generates defensive stats in bunches. It is rare for him to show any signs of offense and it is considered a bonus when it does happen. If you are looking for a stable center-back this is your man.

Collects assist in return to lineup Brunetta assisted once, created two chances, sent three crosses (one accurate), took one corner and received one yellow card in the 2-2 draw with Spezia on Saturday.
Impact Brunetta was average in his return from COVID in the draw Saturday. The midfielder has been out for quite sometime and it is hard to expect much in his first match back. However, with that in mind he did perform much better than expected. Although, he did get lucky with his assist to put Parma up two goals to start the match. Nonetheless, if he can pick his role over set-pieces back up he will be a great option.

Receives yellow card Saturday Kurtic took one corner, made two tackles (one won) and received one yellow card in the 2-2 draw with Spezia on Saturday.
Impact Kurtic was poor in his return to the lineup Saturday. The midfielder was held out of the draw against Udinese for what seems to be a poor attitude and unprofessionalism. Kurtic is typically a great peripheral player and is a terrific streaming option because of it. However, monitor his status and performances closely for a possible rift between him and his manager.

Pulled from XI Cornelius has been removed from the starting lineup for the match against Spezia as he experienced some discomfort in the warm-ups and has been replaced by Juan Francisco Brunetta,...
Impact Cornelius will likely take some tests in the next couple of days to assess the situation. The other forwards Gervinho, Roberto Inglese, Graziano Pelle and Joshua Zirkzee are also sidelined, therefore Parma are going with a light front-line in this one. Brunetta is making only his second start of the season.

Remains out for Spezia match Inglese (personal/conditioning) is missing from Parma's squad list to face Spezia Saturday.
Impact Inglese has been practicing fully for almost a week now, but the coaching staff will give him some more time to work on his fitness. He is not dealing with an injury but previously spent some time away from the team. Andreas Cornelius is currently the only healthy center-forward for Parma.

Called up for Spezia game Valenti (thigh) has been included in Parma's squad list to face Spezia Saturday.
Impact Valenti is available after missing seven weeks due to a severe thigh injury. He figures to be behind Mattia Bani, Yordan Osorio, Bruno Alves, Riccardo Gagliolo and Simone Iacoponi in the pecking order in the back, so his playing time is going to be uncertain moving forward unless there are some injuries. He has notched nine clearances, four interceptions and two tackles in his lone three appearances.

Ruled out for Spezia match Zirzkee is unavailable for Saturday's game versus Spezia due to back pain and will undergo further tests, Parma announced.

Suffers thigh strain Gervinho has sustained a grade one strain of the semimembranosus muscle in the right thigh, Parma announced.
Impact Gervinho was slated to return after being excluded for disciplinary reasons in the previous match, but he got hurt late in the week. He is slated to sit out at least the next three contests. Valetin Mihaila replaced him in the lineup last week, but also Dennis Man and Gaston Brunetta will be candidates.

Remains on bench against Udinese Zirkzee remained on the bench as an unused substitute in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Udinese.
Impact Zirkzee has played in the last two matches off the bench, but did not make an appearance at all in Sunday's match. He has taken one shot in the last two appearances and created one chance. Andreas Cornelius scored in the match though, so it remains to be seen if Zirkzee can take minutes away from him. Parma will be on the road Saturday against Spezia.

Scores penalty against Udinese Kucka took five shots and scored a penalty, which was his only attempt on goal in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Udinese.
Impact Kucka had plenty of shot attempts and buried the penalty take in the 32nd minute of the first half to give Parma a 2-0 lead. He was very physical in the game as he won three of five tackles, made three clearances, made an interception and drew five fouls. Kucka now has five goals and an assist through 19 starts this season. Parma will play on the road against Spezia on Saturday.

Impact Pezzella whipped in a great cross from the left side and found Andreas Cornelius for a headed goal in the third minute. He sent in three crosses (two accurate) in total and almost found Cornelius for a second goal, but the header was saved. Pezzella also won the only tackle he attempted and made an interception. He has three assists through 14 appearances and will look to have another solid performance against Spezia on the road Saturday.

Cornelius finished the match with two chances created, four fouls and also earned a yellow card. The goal was also his first of the season, so he will look to build on the momentum in Saturday's game against Spezia.

Slated to return against Spezia Inglese practiced in full fashion Tuesday after being limited over the last two weeks, Parma announced.
Impact Inglese had never worked regularly after spending some time away from the team in January due to personal reasons. He is expected to be back in the squad list for Saturday's game versus Spezia. He will compete with Andreas Cornelius and Joshua Zirkee to play as centre-forward moving forward. He has had a tough season so far, failing to score in 12 appearances (two starts). He has notched eight shots, three created chances and four crosses.

Fares decently against Udinese Hernani sent in five crosses (zero accurate), took one off-target shot, had one block and one clearance in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Udinese.
Impact Hernani matched his season high for crosses thanks to few corner kicks.

Impact Kurtic and Gervinho were excluded for this game after the coach told them they would start on the bench. The manager added that he expects more professionalism in every situation, so they likely reacted poorly. Hernani, Wylan Cyprien and Simon Sohm would benefit if Kurtic no longer played full minutes. Parma will visit Spezia next Saturday.

Not dealing with an injury Gervinho was excluded from the squad to face Udinese due to technical and disciplinary reasons, coach Roberto D'Aversa informed.
Impact Gervinho was going to start on the bench in this one and the coach hinted that the player did not take the communication well, saying that he expects professionalism in all situations. It remains to be seen whether the issue will linger. Valentin Mihaila, Yann Karamoh and Dennis Man all fared well in this game, so Gervinho will no longer be guaranteed the starting job moving forward. Parma will visit Spezia next Saturday.
