In the previous round, Paolo Vanoli's squad suffered a 0-1 away defeat to Lecce. As a result, Torino failed to win for the fourth consecutive Serie A match (1 draw, 3 losses). Additionally, the team scored only one goal during this period. In the standings, the club has 44 points and sits in 11th place, with no chance of moving higher.

Torino vs. Roma: Match Prediction
Paolo Vanoli's side is not known for their attacking prowess, even in home games. In their last 15 home league matches, Torino managed to score more than one goal only three times and failed to score in five matches during this period. However, defensively, Torino is quite solid, conceding at most one goal in 9 of their last 10 home Serie A matches, keeping a clean sheet in four of those games.
While Roma has achieved maximum results in 6 of their last 8 away league matches, each victory was by a one-goal margin. Notably, in five of Roma's wins, the scoreline was 1-0. Throughout the current Serie A season, the team has scored more than one goal in only three away matches.
Considering that both of the last head-to-head meetings at Torino's ground in the league ended with no more than two goals, I expect another low-scoring match from these teams. My prediction: Total under 2.5 goals
