Torino vs Juventus – A win for Torino would be the ideal way to pay tribute to the late winger Luigi Meroni, one of the club’s most significant historical personalities, even if they had only achieved success in one of the previous 34 competitive iterations of the Derby della Mole (D8, L25).
After nine games, there were only two points separating the two teams, thus Torino supporters will view this as a significant opportunity to surpass their opponents and enjoy a significant derby victory—something they last did in 2015.
The Granata’s meager eight SA goals this season have played a big part in Torino’s current dismal form, which prevented them from suffering their fourth consecutive loss against Empoli (1-1). Coach Ivan Juri has already given serious consideration to playing four attackers on Saturday, despite the fact that doing so could be extremely risky given the opposition’s dominance in Italian football.
Torino vs Juventus – Betting Analysis
Juventus did not have the best warm-up for this game as they lost to Maccabi Haifa in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday after losing to AC Milan last weekend by a score of 2-0. Massimiliano Allegri claimed he was “ashamed” of Juventus, but surprisingly after such an ego-damaging defeat, club president Andrea Agnelli guaranteed him of his job.
Another injury to ngel Di Mara added salt to Juventus’ wounds as they attempted to earn their first competitive away victory of the season (D2, L4). That’s a major setback given that Juve are currently trailing Napoli by ten points in the SA, and subpar away league performances may share some of the responsibility. With only one SA goal scored on the road this season and Juventus’ most recent road victory coming in late April, it is easy to see the primary issue.
Players to keep an eye on: In six games versus Juventus, Antonio Sanabria of Torino has scored twice, both goals coming before the hour mark. Leonardo Bonucci, the captain of Juventus, has dominated him in 12 of their 17 head-to-head meetings (D4, L1) and scored a late goal in the most recent Turin derby he took part in.
