SERIE A WOMEN, AC MILAN v PARMA: MATCH PREVIEW

It's the penultimate matchday of the league for the Rossonere, who face Parma at the PUMA House of Football. Playing on Mother's Day, they will celebrate by wearing their mother's maiden name on the back of their shirts, as well as using it in the official line-ups. Kick-off is at 12:30 CEST, and it is the last home game of the season for Coach Bakker's Rossonere. 

LATEST FROM PUMA HOUSE OF FOOTBALL
The Rossonere are just one point away from fourth place, and six from third place. Their final two fixtures, against Parma and Ternana Women, offer Bakker’s side the chance to finish as high up the table as possible and build some momentum heading into the end of the season. Zanini and Park will miss the match due to muscle injuries, while Angelica Soffia returns after missing the derby. AC Milan have not won at home in their last three matches, and the aim is to end the season on a positive note in front of the home supporters.

Suzanne Bakker's words on the eve of the clash: "After last week's disappointment, we want to show a clear response: together, with courage and conviction, we will go for victory in the last two matches and aim to finish as high as possible in the standings."

LATEST FROM PARMA
Parma sit tenth and third from bottom in the table on 16 points, and were forced to postpone securing survival after a 3-1 home defeat to Lazio in the last round. Before that loss to the Biancocelesti, Valenti’s side had put together a run of five consecutive unbeaten matches. The Ducali need just one more point to guarantee their place in the top flight and will be hoping to secure safety on Sunday against the Rossonere.

Coach Giovanni Valenti's pre-match comments: "AC Milan play attacking football, they create a lot and at the same time concede a few chances. They're a team we respect, and facing them will be exciting. We're really hungry to get there, there's only a few more meters to go, and we'll have to give it everything we've got."
