Assists off bench in loss Mihaila assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-1 defeat against Atalanta.

Impact Mihaila set up Matteo Cancellieri with a through ball in the 49th minute after being introduced as a half-time substitute in Saturday's clash. The Romanian international had just provided another assist for his country in a Nations League match. He'll continue to push for more playing time at the expense of Adrian Benedyczak, looking to produce in terms of playmaking stats and occasional set pieces.

Starting against Lecce Mihaila (lower leg) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Lecce.

Impact Mihaila will miss no time after suffering a knock midweek, with the attacker having been placed in the starting XI Saturday. He has started in all four matches to begin the season and should continue in the starting role moving forward, registering one assist in his four appearances.

Probable for Lecce match Mihaila "suffered a knock and not more serious issues," his agent Giovanni Becali told Tuttomercatoweb.

Impact Mihaila wasn't mentioned by coach Fabio Pecchia in the pre-game presser, which suggests he's good to go for Saturday. He has started every game so far, posting one assist, nine shots (two on target), five key passes and two crosses (one accurate). Pontus Almqvist would be the fallback if he wasn't 100 percent.

Wasteful against Fiorentina Mihaila drew two fouls, won one of three tackles and had four shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Fiorentina.

Impact Mihaila paced his side in attempts and had at least a pair of clear-cut opportunities but couldn't capitalize on them. He'll have to show well consistently to keep ahold of the starting job since Parma recently brought in two wingers, Matteo Cancellieri and Pontus Almqvist, who could threaten his minutes.

Impact Mihaila has resumed practicing this week, but the coaching staff decided to play it safe. He has posted three goals, 14 crosses and seven created chances in 16 games in his first year in Italy. Parma will likely lean on Gervinho and Andreas Cornelius offensively in their final game.
