Good morning and welcome to the live broadcast of Bari-Parma, match valid for the 36th day of the Serie B championship.5.28pm
A very delicate match takes place at San Nicola in Bari for both the home team and the guests. Bari has in fact fallen to the third to last place in the rankings, five points from direct salvation and one from the playout, Parma instead dreams of being able to celebrate direct promotion today: one point today would in fact ensure the certainty of no longer being reached by Venezia and it would therefore be mathematical Serie A.6.01pm
Rapuano directs the match with Lo Cicero and Scarpa assisting him. The fourth official is Di Cicco while in the VAR room there are Serra and Muto.5.36pm
2-1 for Parma in the first leg played in September, Partipilo and Benedyczak scored the Emilian goals while Nasti scored for the Apulian team. The two teams also faced each other in the Italian Cup last August, a clear success for Pecchia’s men who won 3-0 away.5.38pm

Giampaolo confirms ten elevenths of the team defeated 4-1 by Cosenza in the last round. The only change concerns the midfield hinge where Lulic takes the place of the suspended Benali. The four-man defense is therefore confirmed in front of Pissardo with Pucino and Ricci on the flanks, Di Cesare and Vicari centrally. In the middle of the field there is Maita while behind the lone striker Nasti there will be the trio of Kallon, Aramu and Sibilli.5.49pm
Pecchia still plays with Bonny as the lone striker, supported by Mihaila, Bernabé and Partipilo. Hernani and Estevez will act as filters in the middle of the field while Coulibaly returns to the left to protect Chichizola, Osorio and Circati are confirmed at the center of defense, as is Del Prato on the right.5.51pm
