What happened
Official starting line-ups have been confirmed for Parma vs Roma in Serie A. The main team-news signal is Paulo Dybala's return to Roma's starting XI, joining Matias Soulé and top scorer Donyell Malen in attack for a key match in the race for fourth place. Roma also have Neil El Aynaoui back from suspension, while Manu Koné and Wesley are fit enough to start after knocks. Parma, already safe, are missing Adrian Bernabé through injury and give Nesta Elphege a rare start.
Chance analysis
This matters because confirmed line-ups reduce uncertainty just before kickoff and sharpen pricing on match result and goals markets. Dybala starting alongside Soulé and Malen raises Roma's attacking ceiling, while Parma's absences and lower motivation profile slightly tilt the pre-match setup toward the away side.
Roma's match outlook improves modestly because Dybala starts and Parma are missing key options.
Treat this as a late confirmed-lineup boost for Roma's attacking outlook, especially with Dybala starting.
