Parma and Genoa meet at the Ennio Tardini on Sunday 20 September 2026, with the Serie A season reaching its fifth round and both sides looking to give greater shape to their early campaign.
The match is scheduled to begin at 15:00 local time, one of those traditional Sunday afternoon appointments that can quickly alter the mood around a club. By this stage, coaches are beginning to see whether the work of the opening weeks is taking hold, while boards and supporters start to measure progress beyond the first impressions of August.
Both teams have confirmed their line-ups and taken to the pitch for the pre-match warm-up in Parma. The Tardini will host a contest between two clubs whose seasons will be judged over the long course of the championship, but where every point in September still carries its own weight.
For Parma, home advantage offers an opportunity to establish momentum in front of their own supporters. Genoa arrive knowing that an away result can provide both points and reassurance as the league table begins to develop after the first four fixtures.
The fifth-round meeting is set for a 15:00 kick-off at the Ennio Tardini.
