✍️ Match Preview
Match Analysis
Parma host Ternana at Stadio Ennio Tardini in Serie B (matchday 18). Kick-off is Saturday 23 December 2023 at 13:00 UK time.
Form Guide
Parma — last 10 games: 5W 3D 2L, averaging 1.80 points per game. Last five: L D W D D. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 1.30 conceded. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.
Parma's home record over their last 10 home games: 5W 5D 0L (2.00 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 0.70 conceded per game. 5 clean sheets from their last 10 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home.
Across their last 10 games, Ternana have recorded 4W 3D 3L — 1.50 PPG. Last five: D D W W W. They are scoring at 1.70 per game and conceding 1.30. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Ternana's form when playing away from home: 2W 2D 6L across their last 10 road games (0.80 PPG). Away from home they average 1.50 goals scored and 2.00 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 90% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture. Their away PPG of 0.80 is notably below their overall 1.50 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Parma 1.80 PPG, Ternana 1.50 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
H2H Record
Despite the home advantage, Ternana have the better record in our head-to-head data — 3 wins from 4 H2H matches against 0 for Parma.
Goals have been a feature of this fixture — the 4 H2H matches in our data averaged 4.0 per game, which gives Over 2.5 a solid head-to-head foundation. The most recent of those, on 11 Feb 2023, ended Parma 1–1 Ternana — a draw.
The H2H data backs the away side. Ternana have won 3 of 4 H2H matches, and at 4.0 goals per game the goals market also points upward — the away win and Over 2.5 combination has a head-to-head case.
In-Play Profile
Parma in-play tendencies (last 55 games, 27 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 74% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 67% of the time; of the 11 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 27%; BTTS occurs in 44% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 37% of games (home games).
Ternana in-play tendencies (last 55 games, 27 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 74% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 50% of the time; of the 15 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 40%; of the 20 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 35%; BTTS occurs in 63% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 67% of games (away games); they fail to score in 31% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Parma 47% versus Ternana 54%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Parma 42% | Ternana 54%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Parma 1.94 xG and Ternana 1.38 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Parma attack 1.253 / defence 0.952 | Ternana attack 1.291 / defence 1.338. League average goals — home 1.159 / away 1.123. Parma carry an above-average attack rating of 1.253 — their 1.94 xG reflects attacking quality above the league norm. Ternana's defence rating of 1.338 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Parma's projected output up. Ternana have an above-average attack rating of 1.291, which lifts their away xG to 1.38. Data: built from Parma's last 55 games and Ternana's last 55.
Result probabilities: Parma 50% | Draw 23% | Ternana 27%. Fair-value odds: Parma 2.00 | Draw 4.28 | Ternana 3.76. Parma hold a narrow Poisson edge at 50% — the draw (23%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 65% | BTTS Yes probability 65% | Total xG 3.32. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 65% — a total xG of 3.32 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 65% — both xG figures (1.94 / 1.38) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Parma are the pick at 50% — moderate model lean. With a 23% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Parma offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
On the goals line, Poisson's 3.32 combined xG gives a 65% probability to Over 2.5 — strong conviction, supported by recent form (Parma's last 10 home games and Ternana's last 10 away games) averaging 2.9 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 4.0 goals per game across 4 H2H matches.
Poisson assigns a 65% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Parma 50% (last 10 home games) | Ternana 90% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Parma beat Ternana 3-1 at Stadio Ennio Tardini, Regular Season - 18, in the Serie B. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Parma 1.94 xG and Ternana 1.38 xG, a combined 3.32. The scoreboard read 3-1 for 4 actual goals. Parma beat their projection by 1.1 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Parma attack 1.25 / defence 0.95 against Ternana attack 1.29 / defence 1.34, drawn from 55/55 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Parma 50% | Draw 23% | Ternana 27%, with Parma to win its most likely call at 50%. The scoreboard confirmed the model's leading pick.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 65%. The game delivered 4, so it went over — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 85% and landed. Over 3.5 was 42% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 65% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 48% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Parma 42%, Ternana 54%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 51%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Parma's trading profile (55 games, 27 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 47% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 36% of the time, and conceded here.
Ternana's trading profile (55 games, 27 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
On form, Parma arrived the stronger side — 1.73 PPG against 1.09. The form guide was vindicated by the result. Parma (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.41 average — above their attacking norm. Ternana (home/away splits) shipped 3 against a 1.70 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 4 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit), form (hit). The data earned its keep here, calling the bulk of the fixture correctly.
