Prediction: 1-1
Milan
Torino will be aiming to build on a 2-1 win over Verona when they take on Milan in the penultimate day of the season. Il Toro are eager to keep their Conference League hopes alive and they are likely to adopt an attack-oriented strategy against Milan. Both Savva and Pellegri are pushing for a start after the duo got their names on the scoresheet against the Mastini, while all Nikola Vlasic, Gvidas Gineitis, and Koffi Djidji remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The Rossoneri, on the other hand, rolled over Cagliari 5-1 at the weekend to clinch second place in the standings. Beating Torino on the road, though, is easier said than done and, taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Both Mike Maignan and Ruben Loftus-Cheek are out of contention with injuries for the visiting side.
