“Clearly we are facing a determined Parma side that needs points to secure safety, but we too are going out there with a lot of motivation.

“If we go into this game with the right attitude, aware of our capabilities and with our feet firmly on the ground, then we can continue the positive path we've been on for the last few games.”
