Torino: first victory after a difficult start
Ignazio Abate's side began the league campaign with 2-1 defeats to Milan and Sassuolo. Torino then managed to turn things around against Fiorentina and won 2-1 thanks to goals from Rolando Mandragora and Che Adams.
Defensive problems remain, however, as Torino have now conceded in eight consecutive Serie A matches. That is particularly concerning ahead of a meeting with one of the most prolific teams at the start of the season.
Roma: perfect start and a powerful attack
Gian Piero Gasperini's side have won all three of their opening Serie A matches: 4-0 against Fiorentina, 4-0 against Lecce and 2-1 against Atalanta. Roma have scored 10 goals and boast a perfect record.
During the week, Roma drew 1-1 with Fenerbahçe in the Champions League, with Mile Svilar making several important saves. In the league, Donyell Malen has been the standout performer, already scoring five goals.
Match facts and head-to-head record
- Roma have won all three of their Serie A matches and scored 10 goals.
- Roma have won their last eight league matches, including the end of last season.
- Roma have won 14 of their last 19 Serie A meetings with Torino.
The visitors' attack could make the difference: Torino vs Roma prediction
Torino finally collected three points, but their defence still looks unstable. Against a team that creates plenty of chances and converts them confidently, that could become the key problem.
Roma are in excellent form and have several dangerous attacking players. Even after their European fixture, the visitors look stronger and should justify their status as favourites.
