Reggina vs Parma Prediction
Reggina have been the more consistent side this term. Parma still have a shot at making it to the playoff spot and a win would boost their chances of an immediate return to Serie A.
The hosts are more compact in their play but Parma's more expansive style means that goals could be scored at both ends of a stalemate.
Prediction: Reggina 2-2 Parma
