Roma set to add to Torino’s misery
AS Roma vs Torino FC - 17/12/2020
2653
On Thursday night, Roma and Torino clash at the Stadio Olimpico in Serie A, with the visitors in desperate need of points at the bottom of the table.
This game looks like a massive opportunity for Roma to make up some ground on the teams above them. The sixth-place Giallorossi are currently six points behind leaders Milan and two points outside the Champions League spots.
With some of their rivals either facing tricky encounters or playing each other, Roma could well find themselves in an improved position in the table by the end of the gameweek.
Paulo Fonseca’s team’s form, in general, has been inconsistent of late. However, a 5-1 win at Bologna last time out means that the team from the Italian capital has now lost just one of their last ten matches in Serie A.
Roma also have a solid recent home record in the Italian top-flight, as they are unbeaten in nine league games at the Stadio Olimpico, having recorded six wins. The Giallorossi have been highly potent in front of goal in recent league games on home soil, having scored at least twice in eight of their last nine matches.
Torino heads into this difficult game 18th place in the Serie A table after a poor campaign. However, they are level on points with Crotone and Genoa the two other teams in the relegation zone.
El Toro have struggled for victories dating back to last season, as Torino have won just one of their last 16 matches in the Italian top-flight.
The visitors have a poor recent record on their travels, as they have won just once in their previous 15 away matches. One positive for Marco Giampaolo is that his team has scored two or more goals in three of their last four matches in Serie A.
Forebet predicts that Roma will record a victory in a high-scoring match to enhance their chances of a return to Serie A’s top four.
