The Derby della Mole wraps up Matchday 24 of the 2022-23 Serie A season, as arch-rivals Juventus and Torino lock horns at the Allianz Stadium on Tuesday night.
Following Juventus’ points deduction, the cross-city foes find themselves side by side in the Serie A table, with eighth-placed Juve leading ninth-placed Torino by a solitary point.
Juventus have dominated this fixture in recent years. But who will claim the Turin bragging rights this time around? It’s time to take a closer look at the teams.
Let’s start with the hosts, Juventus, who head into Tuesday’s showdown on the back of a 3-0 victory over French side Nantes in the Europa League.
Thanks to a hat-trick from Angel Di Maria, Juve are currently enjoying a six-game unbeaten streak in all competitions, having claimed five wins and one draw since their last loss.
It is also worth noting that Juventus have lost just two of their previous 14 Serie A encounters, picking up 11 wins and one draw in the process.
Better still, only table-topping Napoli have conceded fewer goals than Juve’s 17 this season. However, the 36-time champions find themselves languishing in mid-table obscurity.
On the flip side, Torino come into this game on the back of a disappointing 2-2 draw with bottom club Cremonese, despite dominating the contest on home soil.
Not only have Torino won just one of their last four Serie A outings, but they have also won two of their previous nine, recording five draws and two losses along the way.
When you look at the bigger picture, Torino’s record of eight wins, seven draws and eight losses tells you everything you need to know about their inconsistent campaign.
It is also worth noting that only five sides have netted fewer goals than Torino’s 24 this term, putting them among the division’s lowest scorers.
Head-to-head: Remarkably, Torino have only managed to win one of their last 29 league meetings with Juventus, suffering 21 defeats in the process.
Juve are currently enjoying a 15-game unbeaten run against Torino in Serie A, with six of their past 11 wins finishing as clean-sheet victories.
Team news: Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli is suspended, while Fabio Miretti, Arkadiusz Milik and Kaio Jorge are all injury doubts.
Torino’s lengthy injury list features Ronaldo Vieira, Nikola Vlasic, Etrit Berisha, Pietro Pellegri, David Zima and Valentino Lazaro ahead of Tuesday’s clash.
When you consider Torino’s woeful recent record in the fixture, all the signs point towards another straightforward home win.
Forebet predicts that Juventus will cruise to a comfortable victory on Tuesday, scoring over 1.5 goals while keeping a clean sheet.
