Torino vs Genoa

, KO: 17:30 Oct 22, 2021, Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino
Genoa

Torino host Genoa in a Friday night Italian Serie A fixture at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino with both clubs looking to breathe some life into their season. Both sides will be desperate to avoid defeat and are likely to serve up a cagey affair in Turin.

Torino were the latest team to fall victim to Serie A leaders Napoli as they were beaten 1-0 in their previous fixture. They set out to frustrate the table toppers and held them for large portions of the game before conceding the winner late in the second half.

The Turin club have looked slightly better than they did at this stage last season but are still far from their best form. They are currently in the bottom half of the table having claimed two wins and as many draws from their opening eight matches.

One of the major problems for manager Ivan Juric is a lack of goals with the usually reliable Andrea Belotti struggling with injuries and scoring just once this season. Antonio Sanabria also has just one goal this term while Torino have failed to find the net in their last two matches.

Genoa were held to a 2-2 draw at home by Sassuolo in their previous Serie A fixture. They went two goals down early in the contest before Mattia Destro and Johan Vazquez grabbed goals to bring them level.

Davide Ballardini's men have found things difficult this season, claiming just one win from eight matches so far. They are currently in the bottom three but sit just two points behind Torino in 12th place.

Genoa have been plagued by draws in recent weeks with three in their last four Serie A matches. They also suffered a 1-0 defeat to newly promoted Salernitana in their previous away fixture.

How the bookies view it

Torino have the upper hand among the bookies at 41/50 with novibet. A victory for Genoa is priced at 4/1 with MansionBet while a draw is set at odds of 27/10 with SBK.

Head to head

Torino have a 15-10 advantage with 12 draws from 37 previous matches against Genoa. There have been two draws in the last three fixtures at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino with the most recent meeting ending 0-0 back in February.

Players to watch

Torino have struggled for goals this season and will be keen to avoid defeat by tightening up at the back. They have kept clean sheets in four of the last six matches against Genoa and central defenders Bremer and Koffi Djidji will be the ones tasked with ensuring a similar outcome at 6/4 with bet365.

Given Torino’s goalscoring problems this season, Genoa will be looking to earn their first shutout of the campaign. Domenico Criscito and Johan Vazquez often feature in defence and can guide the visitors to a clean sheet at 4/1 with Skybet.
