Our prediction for this Serie A match:
AS Roma will try to recover from an embarrassing 5-1 loss to Fiorentina when they take on Torino in the Serie A round 10. The Giallorossi have been struggling under Ivan Juric and, no doubt, the Croatian tactician feels pressure ahead of Thursday's clash. Defender Mario Hermoso is banned for the match, with summer signing Mats Hummels likely to step up. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Il Toro, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Como and they managed to get one thanks to Alieu Njie’s goal. The Swedish forward is pushing for a start, while Colombia ace Duvan Zapata remains in the recovery room. Anyhow, both teams to score betting option should be considered as Roma experienced all sorts of problems at the back in the defeat to Fiorentina. In their last meeting in “The Eternal City” AS Roma defeated Torino 3-2.
