Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Stadio Artemio Franchi will host Sunday’s matinee between Fiorentina and Torino. Il Toro failed to win the previous six games in all competitions and they must be low on confidence following a 2-1 loss to rock-bottom Monza. Argentina forward Lucas Beltran is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute against the Biancorossi, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team. Il Toro, on the other hand, have drawn each of their last three Serie A games.
Torino are undefeated in the previous three away games and given Fiorentina’s poor form at the start of 2025, there is a big value in betting on draw. Bear in mind, though, that both Sebastian Walukiewicz and Karol Linetty are banned for the visiting team. It has to be noted that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of the previous five meetings between Torino and Fiorentina in the national championship.
