In that match, Torino managed 48% possession and 13 shots at goal with 2 on target. Juventus had 8 shots at goal with 3 on target.

Under three goals per match were scored during 5 of the last 6 fixtures where Torino have taken part. Breaking down the goal distribution in this period, opposing sides scored an aggregate of 4 while Torino got themselves 6. Even so, we’ll just have to find out whether the trend might be maintained here in this match.

• are undefeated in their previous 3 home league matches.

Frosinone

Previously, Frosinone drew 2-2 in the Serie A match with SSC Napoli.

In that match, Frosinone managed 34% possession and 13 shots at goal with 6 of them on target. The only player to score for Frosinone was Walid Cheddira (50', 73'). For their opponents, Napoli got 20 shots at goal with 9 of them on target. Matteo Politano (16') and Victor Osimhen (63') scored for SSC Napoli.

Looking at their form, and Frosinone have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, conceding 8 goals overall. Defensively, Frosinone can certainly do much better.

Going into this game, the form guide shows that Frosinone:

• are winless against Torino when they have played them away from home in the previous 2 league matches.
• are undefeated in their previous 2 league matches away from home.
• are without an away win for the past 16 matches in the league. They clearly need to do something about it.

🗞️ Team News: Torino

Koffi Djidji (muscular problems), Gvidas Gineitis (Knee injury), Pietro Pellegri (unknown injury) and Perr Schuurs (Cruciate ligament injury) will not be able to play for Torino gaffer Ivan Jurić. Samuele Ricci cannot play in this game through suspension.

It seems likely that Il Toro should employ a 3-4-1-2 system for the game and select V. Milinkovic-Savic, Adrien Tameze, A. Buongiorno, Ricardo Rodriguez, Raoul Bellanova, Mergim Vojvoda, Karol Linetty, Ivan Ilic, Nikola Vlasic, David Okereke and Duvan Zapata.

ℹ️ Team News: Frosinone

Frosinone manager Eusebio Di Francesco has not got a full squad to pick from. Sergio Kalaj (Ligament injury), Arijon Ibrahimovic (unknown injury) and Anthony Oyono (Ankle surgery) can’t be considered.

We are inclined to think that Canarini could decide to utilise a 3-5-2 lineup, choosing Stefano Turati, Pol Lirola, Simone Romagnoli, Memeh Caleb Okoli, Nadir Zortea, Luca Mazzitelli, Enzo Barrenechea, Marco Brescianini, Emanuele Valeri, Matias Soule and Walid Cheddira.

💡 Prediction

We feel that in this game, Torino can and should be able to create a decent number of chances and shots on target.

Conversely, Frosinone will not find it easy getting goals although we do think it’s probable that they will be managing to get on the scoresheet as well here.

We can therefore see a controlled 3-1 margin for Torino at the end of the 90 minutes.
