Bologna will begin a new chapter under Raffaele Palladino, with the hosts hoping their strong historical home record in this fixture can help them recover from a miserable start to the Serie A campaign.
The Rossoblu have managed just one point from their opening four league matches, losing three, including last weekend’s narrow 1-0 defeat to Napoli.
That result brought Domenico Tedesco’s brief tenure to an end, with the coach dismissed on Wednesday and Palladino appointed on a contract running until June 2029.
Palladino’s first task is to prevent Bologna from losing their fourth game of the new season.
Home advantage has not provided much comfort in recent months either, as Bologna have suffered 10 Serie A defeats in 16 games at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara since the beginning of December.
On the other hand, Torino arrive without much momentum themselves following a 2-0 defeat against in-form Roma on Monday.
That loss was their fourth in five matches across all competitions, with their only victory during that period coming in the league.
Il Toro have collected just three points from their first four Serie A fixtures, putting them 14th on the league table.
Torino did claim their only league victory of the season on their most recent away trip to Fiorentina, offering some encouragement ahead of this encounter.
Both teams therefore arrive at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara with significant pressure, although the circumstances are different.

Whispers predicts: Bologna 2-1 Torino
Bologna will look to rely on their head-to-head record against Torino as a boost to their confidence for this clash.
The Rossoblu have built a commanding record in this specific game, avoiding home defeat in their last 10 league meetings.
However, this season, they have had a difficult start, which has put them a spot away from the relegation zone.
The visitors, meanwhile, will want to end the home team’s dominance and claim their first win since 2023.
The bookmakers have tipped Bologna to win this encounter at 9/10 (1.90). A draw is valued at 5/2 (3.50), while a win for Torino is at 3/1 (4.00).
Given the recent encounters between these two clubs, the market for a first-half draw is priced at 6/5 (2.20).
The home team total goals (over 1.5) are available at 9/10 (1.90), and the home team double chance is at 2/9 (1.22).
