Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Torino and Napoli square off against each other at Stadio Olimpico di Torino in the Serie A round 27. Il Toro quickly bounced back from a 4-2 loss to their local rivals Juventus, with the team beating both Bologna and Lecce in the last two league matches. The hosts are high on spirits ahead of Sunday’s showdown, and they are likely to rely on their solid defence against the league leaders. Boss Ivan Juric will be watching the game from the stands following his sending off in the triumph over Lecce, while all Lazaro, Zima, Vlasic, and Karamoh miss out with injuries.
The Neapolitans, on the other hand, moved one step closer to winning Scudetto thanks to a 2-0 triumph over Atalanta. Since Luciano Spalletti’s men are 18 points clear of second-place Inter, they should be happy with one point from the match as well. Forward Giacomo Raspadori is sidelined with injury, while defender Mario Rui is a major doubt.
