Match Prediction: Torino vs. Napoli
At home, Torino often focuses on defensive play, which means the team doesn't boast high scoring. In the last eight home Serie A matches, Torino has only surpassed one goal once, and in the last four games, the club's players didn't score at all. Meanwhile, in 10 of their last 13 home league matches, Torino hasn't conceded more than one goal.
Napoli is more successful in home encounters, but away games often pose challenges for their attack. In the last nine away Serie A matches, Antonio Conte's side has only managed to score at least two goals twice and didn't score at all against Venezia and Parma. However, in the last eight away league matches, Napoli has conceded a total of just four goals.
I do not expect this to be a high-scoring match, so my prediction: Total under 2.5 goals
