Parma's best chance of the opening period well to Sebastian Giovinco after 38 minutes, but his strike from outside the box just drifted wide of the target.
Stefano Okaka Chuka passed up a glorious chance for the away side moments into the second period, but he struck wide.
It was Palmero who so nearly extended their lead after 48 minutes, however, when Matias Silvestre struck the bar with a powerful effort.
Parma levelled the match after 55 minutes, when Okaka Chuka headed home from close range.
The away side continued to carve out the better openings, and took the lead after 70 minutes when Jonathan Biabiany struck home from inside the box.
