Giuseppe Pezzella - Remains shelved Pezzella (shoulder) is unavailable for Sunday's game against Sassuolo.

Impact Pezzella will miss the third straight match with a shoulder injury whose severity has not been announced. Parma lost also his backup Riccardo Gagliolo, so either Lautaro Valenti or Vincent Laurini will fill in at left-back.

Juraj Kucka - Will not return versus Sassuolo Kucka (undisclosed) will miss Sunday's match against Sassuolo, Parma announced.

Impact Kucka was expected to return after being spared midweek, but he picked up a new unspecified injury late in the week. Simon Sohm and Juan Francisco Brunetta got the nod in the last game and could both start again Sunday.

Gervinho - Called up for Sassuolo match Gervinho (thigh) has been named in Parma's squad list to face Sassuolo Sunday.

Impact Gervinho was a late scratch for the midweek round, but the soreness did not linger. He has decent chances to start since Parma are severely undermanned in the attack. He could replace a defender compared to their most recent XI.

Gaston Brugman - Called up for Sassuolo match Brugman (thigh) has been included in Parma's squad list to face Sassuolo Sunday.

Impact Brugman has missed the last three matches with a thigh strain, but he has been able to recover pretty quickly. He will be a strong candidate to start in the midfield since they are dealing with multiple absences. He has tallied five shots, eight crated chances and 20 crosses in his last four appearances.

Yordan Osorio - Suffers ankle injury Osorio has been ruled out for Sunday's match versus Sassuolo because of an ankle sprain, Parma announced.

Impact Osorio will undergo further tests to see if he could recover for the final round. His absence will open up minutes for the other center-backs, in particular Mattia Bani, Bruno Alves and Daar Dierckx.

Juan Francisco Brunetta - Takes four shots in start Brunetta recorded four shots (two on goal), two inaccurate crosses and one chance created in a 1-0 loss Wednesday against Lazio.

Impact Brunetta logged his first start since a 56-minute appearance he recorded on Feb. 27 against Spezia. He has played in four fixtures after that date. Despite playing a meager amount of games this year, Brunetta is still 23 years old and possesses some upside potential matchups.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jasmin Kurtic - Attempts three shots Kurtic recorded three shots not on goal in a 1-0 loss Wednesday against Lazio.

Impact Kurtic tied his season-best tally of shots. Across 22 starts as a central midfielder, he recorded 18 corners and created 15 chances. Kurtic's next start is scheduled for Sunday versus Sassuolo.

Hernani - Creates four chances Hernani recorded four chances created, three inaccurate crosses and two shots (one on goal) in a 1-0 loss Wednesday against Lazio.

Impact Hernani tied his season-best tally of chances created, which he recorded once before against Inter on March 4. He possesses 76 crosses (18 accurate) and 28 corners across 31 games this season.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Mattia Bani - Records seven interceptions Bani recorded seven interceptions, seven clearances and one block in a 1-0 loss Wednesday against Lazio.

Impact Bani logged his season-best tally of interceptions. Though the defender sat out Parma's previous two fixtures, he recorded 22 interceptions across 10 games after returning from a previous season on March 4.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Luigi Sepe - Concedes once in four-save loss Sepe recorded four saves but allowed one goal in a 1-0 loss Wednesday against Lazio.

Impact Sepe conceded once to Ciro Immobile in his fifth consecutive loss following an April 3 start against Benevento. He recorded 16 saves but conceded 14 goals for a 53.3 save percentage across the five-game span.

MAY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Gervinho - Ruled out for Lazio match Gervinho has been removed from the squad list to face Lazio Wednesday because of a lingering muscular issue, Parma announced.

Impact Gervinho will likely undergo some tests after the game. Chaka Traore has been added to the call-ups and might make his first start since Parma are missing several offensive options.
