Roma vs Torino prediction: A confident win for the hosts
Key Stats
- Torino have failed to score in their first two games of the season.
- Roma have beaten Torino four times in their last five meetings and they didn't concede a goal in three of those four wins.
- Three of the four matches played by these two teams combined in Serie A so far have gone under 1.5 total goals.
Correct score prediction: Roma 2-0 Torino
While Torino are not a bad team and they could put up a good fight against the top Serie A teams on their good day, avoiding a loss in Rome doesn't sound too likely for the Bull.
After all, Torino have struggled on offense at the start of the season and they were demolished by Inter 5-0 in their only away match so far, while Roma have started the new season with a couple of wins.

Roma preview: Hoping to win third in a row
Despite their impressive record and resurgence since Claudio Ranieri took over for the second part of last season, Roma missed out on the Champions League by one point, finishing fifth in the standings. Ranieri left the managerial position at the club, although he is still there as an advisor, but his successor, Gian Piero Gasperini, started the new season perfectly, beating Pisa and Bologna in the first two Serie A rounds.
Meanwhile, Leon Bailey and Edoardo Bove will miss this match due to injuries.
Predicted lineup: Svilar (GK), Hermoso, Mancini, Ndicka, Rensch, Cristante, Kone, Angelino, Soule, Dybala & Ferguson
Last five matches
- Pisa 0-1 Roma (Serie A)
- Roma 1-0 Bologna (Serie A)
- Roma 2-2 Neom SC (Club Friendly)
- Everton 0-1 Roma (Club Friendly)
- Aston Villa 4-0 Roma (Club Friendly)
Torino preview: Struggling to find goals
The schedule wasn't kind for Torino since they had a very tough set of games to start the season. Their first match was against Inter in Milan and the home team dominated that match to win 5-0. Torino did better at home in the second round against Fiorentina, securing a point from a scoreless draw. Torino also played one match in Coppa Italia, beating Modena 1-0 at home.
When it comes to team news, Zannetos Savva and Perr Schuurs are out with injuries for Torino.
Predicted lineup: Israel (GK), Pedersen, Coco, Ismajli, Biraghi, Casadei, Asllani, Ilic, Ngonge, Adams & Vlasic
Last five matches
- Torino 0-0 Fiorentina (Serie A)
- Inter Milan 5-0 Torino (Serie A)
- Torino 1-0 Modena (Coppa Italia)
- Valencia 3-0 Torino (Club Friendly)
- Monaco 3-1 Torino (Club Friendly)
Player to watch: Matias Soule
Last season, the young versatile attacker had five goals in Serie A, along with five assists, which isn't too shabby for a 21-year-old. Meanwhile, Soule already has one goal this season and he will likely get even more chances and playing time now that he has one season with Roma under his belt.
