Torino vs Fiorentina predictions: Il Toro to make home advantage count?

Torino were beaten in back-to-back defeats to Lazio and Roma in their last two assignments, though they have lost just one of their last eight home matches overall and they could take points off an inconsistent Fiorentina outfit.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Torino have a slight edge

• HOME: 8/5 (2.60) – 28.5%
• DRAW: 2/1 (3.00) – 33.3%
• AWAY: 15/8 (2.88) – 34.8%

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Torino have been priced as slight favourites to prevail on Saturday and with just one loss in eight home games, it’s easy to see why the odds are weighted that way. Fiorentina meanwhile, have lost three of their last four games on the road.

Our free expert picks: Tight 1-0 Torino triumph in the works?

We recommend checking out or other latest betting tips ahead of the weekend’s action across Europe’s top leagues.

Torino have been installed as this weekend’s expected winners, however backing a draw in the half time market could be a smart move at 20/23 (1.87) in what could be a closely contested clash. That outcome has a 53.5% chance of hitting the mark.

Hot tip – Under 2.5 Goals

• Just one goal hit the net when these teams last met back in December.
• Five of Torino’s last six home assignments have featured under 2.5 goals.

Other tips

Torino 1-0 Fiorentina

• Torino have been averaging 1.07 goals per home game in Serie A this season.
• Fiorentina failed to score in two of their last four away fixtures in the league.

Duvan Zapata to Score First

• Duvan Zapata is Torino’s leading scorer this season with eight goals.
• Seven of his goals were deadlock breakers making him a superb Serie A first goalscorer option this weekend.

Player to watch – Raoul Bellanova

Raoul Bellanova is a former Italian U21 international with excellent pedigree and his raiding runs down the right this season have produced five assists for Torino in Serie A.

Bellanova can provide thrust again

Bellanova has been in impeccable form since the turn of the year and the 23-year-old claimed three assists and scored once in his last six runouts for Torino. The in-form wingback could offer menace from the flank again on Saturday.
