Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Torino will be looking to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Inter when they take on Sassuolo in the Serie A round 24. Il Toro have been struggling at the back of late, with the team conceding six goals in total in the previous two league fixtures, and given Andrea Belotti’s lack of fitness, we do not believe that there is a big value in betting on the home team. Both N’Koulou and Singo have been tested positive for coronavirus.
The Neroverdi, on the other hand, aim to build on a 3-2 win over Verona. Sassuolo aim to cement their spot in top ten, and given Torino’s shaky defence, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visiting team. Both Bourabia and Romagna are sidelined through injuries, but there are no suspended players in the away team ahead of the trip to Turin.
Highlighted Player (Andrea Belotti):
Andrea Belotti began his youth career at Grumellese at the age of 10 and after spending three years at the club, he joined Albinolefe in 2006.
