Prediction: 1-1
Juventus
There will be fireworks when Torino and Juventus take on each other at Stadio Olimpico di Torino in the Turin derby. Il Toro failed to impress in a 3-2 loss to Empoli at the weekend, but there were some positivities in their display in the second half. Juve defender should have Duvan Zapata at bay as the 33-year-old forward scored a brace against the Azzurri, while both Ivan Ilic and Gvidas Gineitis remain in the treatment room.
The Bianconeri, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Fiorentina, but Saturday’s local derby will be anything but a walk in the park for the visitors. Anyhow, under 2.5 goals betting option should be considered as both sides are likely to adopt a cautious approach in the Turin derby. Barring any fresh injury worries, Massimiliano Allegri is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Viola, but Poland international Arkadiusz Milik remains in the recovery room.
