Parma 2 Bologna 1
Parma in the Champions League? Pretty good for a club in Serie B this time last year. Parma have been a great story all year long and I should of touched upon it sooner. With coming from behind to defeat Bologna they now sit in 4th spot with 28 points, 4 points ahead of another good story Bari who are in 5th.
In Alberto Paloschi up front they have a striker that they hopefully can build around as he is also co-owned by A.C Milan but Parma has made all the right moves since jumping back into the top flight. Bringing back former Italian international Cristian Zaccardo back to Italy after a one year stint at Wolfsburg has also proven to be a wise move and then you have Christian Panucci. While Panucci may of lost a step, he is a winner and his experience and leadership showing through with Parma fine form this season.
