Parma captain Alessandro Lucarelli has insisted that his side can recover from their poor start to the season.
The Gialloblu have lost 11 of their 13 league matches this season and are currently bottom of the Serie A table.
"We mustn't let our heads drop, as we aren't dead yet," Lucarelli told reporters.
"We will fight to the end. Now we have two consecutive games on home turf and will try to make the most of them to get back on track.
"This group is ready to sacrifice itself and all of us, starting from me, will give the last drop of sweat to emerge from this situation."
Parma suffered a 2-1 defeat against Palermo at the weekend.
