Parma’s first Serie B game under Fabio Pecchia was a 2-2 draw against Bari at the start of the season. Before halftime, his team had taken an early lead, fallen behind 2-1, and then tied the game again. Prior to that game, Parma had a challenging away draw in the Coppa Italia first round.
Valentin Mihaila scored both goals as they prevailed 2-0 to go to the next round. Despite having three goals and three assists in six games before to his absence, Mihaila’s promising start to the season has been interrupted by a thigh injury that has kept him out since September. Parma is being careful with Mihaila’s comeback.

Parma vs Bari Prediction
Since being promoted from Serie C last season, Bari has been one of the biggest surprises of the Serie B season. The Apulia team is already vying for promotion to Serie A and will hope to make up for their weekend loss with a cup win.
Parma enters the game with momentum thanks to their four-game winning streak and their ability to keep consecutive clean sheets after going four games without one.
We predict a tight victory for the hosts, with goals at both ends.
I predict Parma to defeat Bari.
