All eyes will be on the Stadio Ennio Tardini on Sunday when Parma host Pisa in Serie B.

Gli Emiliani were relegated back into the second division after finishing rock-bottom in Serie A last season, ending their three-year stay in the top-flight.

They're now looking to make amends for back-to-back losses to Cremonese and Ternana, which plunged them down to 12th in the league standings.

However, it would be far easier said than done against the high-flying Pisa side, who're currently leading the race for automatic promotion.

The Nerazzurri are the only side to have won all five of their league fixtures and maintain a 100% record, scoring 12 times in the process too.

Last seen in Serie A in early 1990s, the side seem determined to end the drought and finally make their way back into the first division.


Parma vs Pisa Head-To-Head

There have been only three previous clashes between the sides, none of which ended in a stalemate.

Pisa won twice, while Parma had only one victory against them, coming way back in May 2009.

The Crusaders are likely to be without Drissa Gui Camara and Yordan Osorio through injuries as both are rated doubtful.

But on the bright side, manager Enzo Maresca will have Franco Vazquez back from suspension and he may slot right back into the XI.

Parma vs Pisa Prediction

As mentioned earlier, Pisa are the form team right now and also leading the charge for automatic promotion. They have incredible momentum and it would take some topping.

On this form, Parma don't seem like the side who're going to stop them, and might instead be rolled over themselves.

Prediction: Parma 1-2 Pisa
