Each team's lineup from their last match in this tournament is listed.
Torino
In the last round, Paolo Vanoli's side shared the points with Parma at home (0-0). As a result, Torino failed to win for the ninth time in their last ten league matches (4 draws, 5 losses). Additionally, the club failed to score in seven of these encounters. The team has accumulated 21 points and holds a respectable 11th place in the standings, but the gap from the relegation zone is only four points. Notably, in terms of home goals scored in the current Serie A season (6), Torino is ahead of only Empoli (3).
Defenders Saúl Coco and Perr Schuurs, midfielder Samuele Ricci, and forward Duván Zapata will miss the game due to injuries.
- The club has not won in 7 of their last 8 home matches in Serie A (3 draws, 4 losses).
- At least one of the opponents failed to score in 6 of the team's last 8 home league games.
- No more than two goals have been scored in Torino's last six home matches in Serie A.
Juventus
Thiago Motta's side drew with Fiorentina at home in the last round (2-2). Nevertheless, Juventus extended their unbeaten run in the league to 26 matches (9 wins, 17 draws). Additionally, the club has scored at least two goals for the 11th time this Serie A season. In the standings, the team has 32 points and occupies the fifth position, just three points shy of the top four. Notably, Juventus has conceded only six goals in away matches this season – fewer than any team except Inter (5).
Defenders Gleison Bremer and Juan Cuadrado, as well as forwards Francisco Conceição, Dušan Vlahović, and Arkadiusz Milik, will miss the match due to injuries. Midfielder Manuel Locatelli is suspended.
- The team is unbeaten in their last 12 away matches in Serie A (4 wins, 8 draws).
- The club has scored at least twice in 6 of their last 9 away league matches.
- Juventus has not conceded more than one goal in 7 of their last 8 away matches in Serie A.
Torino vs. Juventus: Match Prediction
Paolo Vanoli's side has struggled in recent league matches, and even home advantage doesn't always help Torino secure positive results. In their last five home Serie A matches, the club has collected only two points, drawing with Parma (0-0) and Monza (1-1). In the other three matches during this stretch, the team lost without scoring a single goal.
Juventus, on the other hand, is comfortable on the road and rarely slips up. In their last six away league matches, Thiago Motta's side was only dissatisfied with the result against Lecce (1-1). In the other five matches, the team won three times and drew twice with strong opponents – Milan (0-0) and Inter (4-4).
Considering that Torino has lost 7 of their last 9 home meetings against Juventus in Serie A, my prediction is a Juventus victory.
