Parma are currently languishing in the relegation and are in 19th place in the league table. The away side is six points away from safety and cannot afford to drop points in this match.

Fiorentina have always endured a miserable campaign so far and find themselves in 14th place in the Serie A standings. La Viola suffered a 2-1 defeat against AS Roma in their previous match and will want to bounce back this weekend.
