Roma Match Betting News
Roma have once again been the closest challengers to Juventus for the Serie A crown and although they remain ten points off the pace at the moment, it has to be said that Giallorossi have performed extremely well so far.
Luciano Spaletti’s men have won nine of their last ten encounters and their 4-0 away victory over Villarreal in the Europa League on Thursday night was arguably Roma’s best performance of the current campaign.
Now the capital based outfit will turned their attention towards closing down the gap on Juventus and while the clash against Torino will surely not be easy, they will be confident of claiming the three points on the day.
Abdullahi Nura, Daniele De Rossi, Emanuele Spinozzi and Alessandro Florenzi are the players who look set to miss out the encounter due to injury.
Torino Match Betting News
Torino looked like they would challenge for a Champions League spot following a bright start to the season but after enduring a terrible run of form over the past two months or so, Il Toro have slipped down to midtable mediocrity once again.
Siniša Mihajlović’s men did manage to stop the rot by claiming a fine 5-3 victory over Pescara last weekend and Torino will now be hopeful of going on a good run of form.
Doing so this weekend will surely not prove to be easy though as they come up against a rampant Roma side away from home.
Danilo Fernando Avelar, Carlos Carlao, Leandro Castán, Mirko Valdifiori, Daniele Baselli, Luca Rossettini and Joel Chukwuma Obi are Torino players struggling with injury ahead of the clash.
Roma vs Torino Match Prediction
Torino managed to claimed a 3-1 victory over Roma the last time these two sides squared off against each other and the Turin side have lost only once in their last four meetings against Giallorossi.
Heading into Sunday’s game though, Roma are simply in irresistible form and with Torino clearly not at their best at the moment; a home victory is likely to be on the cards.
