Reggiana-Parma under x-rays: historical data, trends and curiosities
- Reggiana and Parma face each other for the 28th time in Serie B: the balance is slightly in favor of the granata who lead by nine victories compared to the eight of the gialloblù brand – 10 draws, including the goalless one last September at the Tardini, close the partial.
- Reggiana have won only one of the last 11 matches (6N, 4L) played against Parma in Serie B – the 1-0, at home, in June 1975) – after having won the full post in eight of the previous 13 matches (3N, 2L) against the yellow-blues in the cadet tournament.
- Parma have kept a clean sheet in 12 games (including the last three in a row) of the 27 total played against Reggiana in Serie B; only against Bari (13) and Brescia (17) have the Ducali had more matches without conceding a goal in the cadet tournament.
- Reggiana and Parma return to face each other at the home of the Granata, in Serie B, more than 34 years after the last match which took place on 30 December 1989 and won 2-0 by the Gialloblù, which thus put an end to a lack of victories away against the Emilian team which had lasted 10 games (6N, 4P).
- Parma won the Serie B championship for the first time in their history; the Ducali have collected 75 points in this tournament and are only one point away from their single-season record in the competition: 76, in 2008/09.
- Parma have scored 65 goals in the 37 matches played in this championship and, in the match against Reggiana, they could set their own scoring record in a single Serie B tournament (at the moment the yellow-blues have equaled the 65 goals scored at the end of the 2008/09 season).
- Reggiana have lost four of their last six championship matches (W2), after having been defeated only once in the previous 14 (0-2 at home, last February against Ternana – 5W, 8N).
- Since his debut in Serie B (2011/12, with Crotone), Stefano Pettinari is the player who has played the most games in the cadet tournament (excluding playoffs/outs): 354 (followed by Camillo Ciano, with 350); one of the four matches in which the Reggiana striker both scored and provided assists in his career in the competition was against Parma, in February 2022, when he wore the Ternana shirt.
- Ange-Yoan Bonny has provided seven assists in this championship: only Abdul Fatawu (2004, Leicester) and Sávio (2004, Girona) are younger than the Parma striker (2003) among the equal positions with at least the same number of winning passes in the five major European championships and related second divisions 2023/24.
- Dennis Man has been involved in 29 goals since the start of 2021/22 (20 goals, nine assists) in Serie B and could become only the second player currently in Parma’s ranks to participate in at least 30 goals in the last three seasons of the junior championship, after Adrian Benedyczak (30).
