Napoli vs. Parma preview: Team news, prediction, date, and how to watch Serie A on DAZN

Serie A plays catch-up this week, with a selection of midweek games from the teams involved in cup competitions during Matchday 16. 

DAZN is showing 380 live games across the 2025-26 campaign, and Wednesday night sees champions Napoli host Parma. 

Napoli remain firmly in the hunt at the top of the table and come into the game having halted Inter's winning run on Sunday, with a hard-fought draw with the league leaders. 

They remain four points off the top, and so need to keep the pressure on their title rivals as they welcome a Parma side battling for points in the lower half. 

Parma have shown flashes of resilience this season, but trips to Naples have historically proven difficult - losing four of their last five - especially as Antonio Conte's side remain undefeated on home turf this campaign. 

Carlos Cuesta's men do come into the game having beaten Lecce at the weekend, but haven't managed back-to-back wins in Serie A since 2020. 

DAZN News has all the information ahead of Napoli vs Parma.
