Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Torino welcome Salernitana at their Stadio Olimpico di Torino in the Serie A round 30. Il Toro failed to win the previous three league fixtures, and, as a result, they are unlikely to represent Italy in European competitions next term. Ivan Ilic misses out with an ankle injury, as well as Zima, Vieira, and Aina, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
I Granata, on the other hand, have drawn each of their last five league matches. Since Salernitana should be happy with one point from Sunday’s clash as well, we are tempted to put our money on draw. All Crnigoj, Maggiore, and Mazzocchi are sidelined with injuries, while Coulibaly is banned for the match. In the first half of the season the two sides played out a 1-1 draw in Turin, and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
