Team Analysis
Parma has had a challenging start to the Serie A season, facing tough opponents like Fiorentina, Milan, and Napoli. Despite these challenges, they have managed to secure four points, indicating resilience and capability. Their recent match against Napoli was particularly notable, as they held their own for most of the game before a red card for their goalkeeper led to a narrow 1-2 defeat. However, injuries to key players such as Zion Suzuki, Hernani, Matias Estevez, and Adrian Benedyczak could impact their performance in the upcoming match.

Udinese has enjoyed one of their best starts in recent history, accumulating seven points from their first three games against Bologna, Lazio, and Como. While luck has played a part in their success, their ability to capitalize on opportunities, like Brenner's decisive goal against Como, has been crucial. Despite some injury concerns, particularly with Alexis Sanchez and Isaac Toure, Udinese has shown they can compete with the top teams in Serie A.

Head-to-Head
Matches between Parma and Udinese have a history of being entertaining, with four out of the last six encounters seeing more than four goals. Both teams have scored in these fixtures, and the head-to-head record does not show a clear dominance by either side. The balanced nature of past encounters suggests we could see another closely contested match.

Prediction
Given the attacking capabilities of both teams and their recent performances, a high-scoring affair is expected. Both teams have scored in all their matches this season, making "both teams to score (yes)" a strong prediction. Additionally, the match is unlikely to feature many corners, as both teams have shown a tendency to play more conservatively in this aspect. Thus, a total of under 9.5 corners is anticipated.

The prediction points towards a 2-2 draw, with both teams finding the net and sharing the points. Parma, playing at home, might have a slight edge, but Udinese's strong start to the season suggests they will be a formidable opponent.

Pick: Both Teams To Score - Yes
