This Serie A match between Parma and Juventus, originally scheduled for April 21, 2025, was postponed due to the passing of Pope Francis and rescheduled for April 23, 2025 at 18:30 CEST (16:30 UTC). Parma currently sits 16th in the Serie A standings with 28 points, struggling with defensive frailties having conceded 49 goals, while Juventus is 5th with a better defensive record and a more potent attack. The match is expected to be challenging for Parma given Juventus' superior form and league position.
Key Factors to Consider
Parma has shown inconsistent form at home, with several draws and no significant recent wins, including low-scoring draws against mid-table teams. Juventus has been in relatively better form, sitting 5th with a solid defensive record (30 goals conceded) and more goal contributions from key players like Dusan Vlahovic who has 9 goals and 4 assists. Parma's attack (37 goals) is less effective compared to Juventus' offensive capabilities.
Historically, Juventus tends to have the upper hand against Parma, especially away from home, evidenced by Juventus' higher league ranking and consistent results over the season. Parma’s recent matches against strong teams often ended in draws, suggesting resilience but limited ability to overcome top-tier opponents like Juventus.
No explicit injury reports are available from the current data for either team, but Juventus generally has a deeper squad to cope with absences. Parma's squad depth limitations could affect their competitiveness.
The postponement due to the passing of Pope Francis may have affected team preparations. Weather conditions in Parma are mild and not expected to impact play significantly. Morale could be influenced by the mourning period.
Juventus is motivated to secure points to improve or maintain their position for a European competition spot, while Parma is fighting to avoid relegation, which could make them highly motivated defensively but less likely to take risks.

The Atlanta Braves host the St. Louis Cardinals in a pivotal MLB matchup. The Braves come off a tough 10-4 loss to the Cardinals the previous night, where the Cardinals’ offense exploded late, led by Nolan Gorman's critical three-run double. Both teams have shown strengths and vulnerabilities, with the Braves relying on recent power surges from players like Matt Olson and Austin Riley, while the Cardinals have demonstrated resilience and clutch hitting to overcome early deficits.
Key Factors to Consider
The Braves have a powerful offense with Austin Riley hitting 5 home runs in his last 13 games and Matt Olson showing consistent power. However, their pitching has been tested, giving up 10 runs in the previous game. The Cardinals, though struggling with a five-game losing streak before their latest victory, showed offensive depth and timely hitting, especially in the late innings, with Miles Mikolas holding a decent ERA of 3.77 against the Braves historically.
The Cardinals recently broke a losing streak by defeating the Braves 10-4. Historically, Miles Mikolas performs reasonably well against Atlanta. This rivalry has featured tightly contested games with both teams trading leads and late-inning heroics.
No major injuries reported impacting key starters or hitters for either team on game day.
Game played at Atlanta’s home ballpark, Truist Park, providing a home-field advantage for the Braves. Weather and conditions expected to be typical for April in Atlanta, with no adverse factors reported.
The Cardinals aim to maintain momentum and extend their winning streak after snapping a losing spell. The Braves are motivated to respond strongly at home to avenge their recent defeat and capitalize on their offensive potential.
