Torino’s last performance against Serie A’s best team this season Napoli must be very encouraging for them. Despite the narrow 1-0 loss, boss Ivan Juric will have his mind on the missed chances by his team. Moreover, a point from Naples could boost the Bulls’ confidence even more. Surely, Torino aim to have a better campaign than the last one when they finished within five points of the relegation zone.
Moreover, only four goals conceded in five competitive home games represents a step forward for Juric’s team. Compared to their average of two goals per game conceded the last term, obviously. Juric worked on his defense. With this in mind, the Maroons will chase their second home win of this season. Considering they are unbeaten in five meetings h2h at home with Genoa, Torino can build on that.

During two of which ended in a respectable 11th or 12th place. Three wins from their last six Serie A away fixtures shows they could add to their points tally here too.
