Parma sits three points higher in the table entering Friday's Serie A match. The hosts have won three in a row if not playing that well at home overall this season. Cagliari is winless in its past three and didn't score in any. It has won just two of its past 12 away and allowed at least one goal in eight straight roadies. Cagliari has a lot more player worries including defender Yerry Minna suspended and midfielder Liza Minnelli ... err Luca Mazzitelli (two goals, two assists) out injured. Parma gets back key defender Alessandro Circati from suspension. It lost the reverse fixture 2-0 in September. I lean something like a 1-1 draw here but maybe we get lucky. Under 2.5 is too expensive.
