Tonight, Lazio Aim to Break Home Draw Streak Against In-Form Parma in Serie A Clash

Lazio welcome Parma Calcio 1913 to the Stadio Olimpico on Monday, April 28th, 2025, at 19:45 GMT, in a crucial Serie A matchup for both sides. Lazio look to improve their standing in the European race, while Parma continue their fight to secure safety from relegation.

Current Form

Lazio bounced back from their recent European disappointment with a solid 2-0 victory over Genoa. That win brought them level on points with Juventus in fifth place, keeping their hopes alive for a top-five finish. However, home form remains a concern, with Lazio recording four consecutive draws at the Stadio Olimpico in Serie A action.

Parma, meanwhile, is enjoying a surge in form. They pulled off a shock 1-0 win against Juventus in their last outing, widening the gap from the relegation zone to six points. Parma are currently unbeaten in their last six league matches, showing impressive resilience at a crucial point in the season.

Head-to-Head Record

History heavily favors Lazio in this fixture. The Roman side has won each of the last four home meetings against Parma across all competitions. In the last six overall encounters, Lazio have triumphed five times, with Parma winning just once. Earlier this season, Lazio claimed a 3-1 victory on Parma’s home turf.
