Serie A officials have announced that Sunday's league game between Parma and Chievo has been moved to midweek because of snowy conditions.

The decision was taken after consultation with security officials in Parma following heavy snowfall in recent days which left stadium workers trying to clear the pitch.

"After consultation with security officials, who said the pitch did not meet the required safety conditions, it has been decided to move the Parma v Chievo league game because of the adverse weather conditions," said a statement.

The match will now be played on February 11 at 1800 (1700 GMT), added the statement.

Embattled Parma sit bottom of Italy's top flight and are undergoing a huge crisis.

Parma, docked a point earlier this season for failing to pay players' salaries, sit bottom of the league with only nine points from 21 games.
