Torino to move closer to top-six with a win against Sassuolo
3606

Torino have enjoyed a solid campaign in Serie A so far this season. Il Toro are currently just two points outside the European spots in the Italian top-flight as they prepare to visit Sassuolo on Saturday evening.

The home side are just five points above the Serie A relegation zone and poor recent form has not helped their chances of falling into the danger zone in the Italian top-flight.

A 3-0 defeat against Udinese last time out in the Serie A means that Roberto De Zerbi’s team has now suffered three straight league defeats, having won just once in their last eight league outings.

The home sides defensive vulnerabilities have been at the heart of the problem of late, as they have conceded at least two goals in six of their last eight Serie A games.

A poor recent home record has not helped Sassuolo’s chances of avoiding a relegation battle either, as they have won just once in their last seven home matches, suffering five defeats in the process.

Their recent home games in Serie A have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in their last nine matches. Both teams have also scored in their last seven league games on home soil.

Torino head into this clash in good spirits after back-to-back league wins over Roma and Bologna. Il Toro have now won four of their last six Serie A games, which has kept them in contention for a top-six spot this season.

Their recent away form has been impressive in Serie A, as the visitors are unbeaten in four league games, having recorded three victories in the process. Walter Mazzarri’s team has also scored at least twice in three of their last four away matches.

Forebet predicts that Torino will continue their recent winning run by recording a victory in a high-scoring clash.
