Torino
In the last round, Paolo Vanoli's side drew 2-2 away against Udinese. As a result, Torino has failed to win in eight of their last nine league matches (3 draws, 5 losses). Moreover, the team scored more than one goal for the first time in their last ten Serie A matches. Torino has accumulated 20 points and sits in 11th place in the standings. It's worth noting that in terms of goals scored at home in the current championship (6), the club surpasses only Empoli (3).
Defenders Sebastian Walukiewicz and Perr Schuurs, as well as forward Duvan Zapata, will miss the game due to injuries.
- The club has not won in 6 of their last 7 home matches in Serie A (2 draws, 4 losses).
- At least one of the opponents failed to score in 14 of the team's last 18 home matches in the league.
- No more than two goals have been scored in 14 of Torino's last 17 home matches in Serie A.
Parma
Fabio Pecchia's side secured a 2-1 home victory against Monza in the last round. As a result, Parma ended a three-match losing streak in the league and claimed their fourth win of the current Serie A season. However, the club has conceded in 11 consecutive league matches. In the standings, the team is in 14th place and trails Torino by two points. Notably, in terms of goals conceded in away matches this season (16), Parma is ahead of only three clubs.
Defender Enrico Del Prato, midfielders Adrian Bernabe, Hernani, and Nahuel Estevez, as well as forward Gabriel Charpentier, will miss the game due to injuries.
- The team has not won in 21 of their last 22 away matches in Serie A (9 draws, 12 losses).
- Both opponents scored in 6 of the club's last 8 away matches in the league.
- At least three goals have been scored in 7 of Parma's last 9 away matches in Serie A.
Torino vs. Parma: Match Prediction
In the current championship, Torino does not exhibit the defensive reliability they boasted at the end of last season. In eight home matches of the current Italian championship, Torino has only managed to keep a clean sheet twice. In both cases, the opponents were not the most prolific – Lecce and Como.
Parma, on the other hand, is showing strong attacking play in the current Serie A season, even in away matches. In 6 of their 8 away games this season, the team has scored, failing to find the net only against Roma and Bologna. Moreover, in 7 of the last 9 head-to-head meetings at Torino's ground in Serie A, Parma players have scored.
I expect at least one goal from the visitors, so my prediction: Parma Individual Total Over 0.5
