Saturday's Serie A action commences at the Stadio Ennio Tardini as both newly-promoted Parma and last season's runners-up AC Milan will look for their first win of the new season.
Paulo Fonseca's first match in charge nearly turned into a complete disaster as AC Milan trailed 2-0 heading into stoppage time.
However, a goal from Alvaro Morata off the bench sparked a comeback, and Noah Okafor's crucial strike ensured a thrilling 2-2 draw. On the other hand, Parma, back in Italy's top division, managed to hold Fiorentina to a draw.
