Andreas Cornelius and Roberto Inglese fight for a starting berth up front.
Alberto Grassi returned to the bench before the break and will provide competition in midfield once again.
Parma will be hoping to have Matteo Darmian back from injury. If not, Simone Iacoponi will start at right-back once again.
Genoa
Davide Biraschi, Cristian Romero and Riccardo Saponara suspended for Genoa.
Domenico Criscito also hurt to leave the far side short at the back. Edoardo Goldaniga should make his first league start of the season and Jawad El Yamiq just a second.
Parma vs Genoa: Predictions
Parma, currently 12th in Serie A, falling to a narrow defeat away to SPAL in the previous round, and they will be looking to bounce back on Sunday, when they take on Genoa.
This Gialloblu have improved their record at the Ennio Tardini with two wins over Sassuolo (1-0) and Torino (3-2), and will try to extend its winning streak to three games aganst out-of-form opponents. Laurini questionable for this one.
Genoa dropped to 19th after losing 1-2 at home to AC Milan. They will try to take 5 matches without a win this weekend, but their away record does not inspire any confidence.
Rossoblu picked up just one point on the road this season (3-3 vs Roma in the season opener), and gets destroyed by Cagliari (1-3) and Lazio (0-4).
Some important players will miss the game - Biraschi, Saponara and Romero suspended, Sturaro and Criscito injured.
This Gialloblu who scored 1.25 goals per game at home, while conceding little more - 1.5 per game. Gervinho and Kulusevski have the ability to cause all sorts of problems for the weight of Genoa backline weakened.
Genoa had an average of 1.33 goals per game bagged in the street, but they conceded a way - an abysmal 3.33 goals per match. Without Domenico Criscito, the heart and soul of this team, and Juventus on loan, Cristian Romero, they will struggle to contain the host.
All things considered, I would happily go back Parma in this one, though in a more secure, pull-no-betting market because the opportunity is surprisingly good, and, as an alternative, I would prefer them to score at least two goals here with the opportunity delicious ,
