Torino vs Como Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

The Maroons are without a win in four games.

Ninth-place Torino are set to face promoted side Como, aiming to return to winning ways after suffering four straight losses on the road. 

Torino are going through a poor run of form at the moment losing four consecutive games in a row despite enjoying a positive start to the season. As a result, Paolo Vanoli’s team currently finds themselves in the ninth position in the standings. Injury has played a major role in their downfall in recent games with several key players like Duvan Zapata sidelined for a longer time. Hopefully, they return to winning ways here. 

Meanwhile, Como are up and running in the Serie A after going through a tough start to the season. The team are starting to click under Cesc Fabregas who has brought a possession and attacking style of play to the team. The last five games have been good for them after registering victories over Atalanta and Hellas Verona while also playing two draws and losing one against Napoli.

Form:

Torino (in all competitions): W-L-L-L-L

Players to Watch

Samuele Ricci (⁠Torino)

Samuele Ricci has enjoyed a rapid rise to the top in the past year or so, becoming a full-fledged Italy international and also becoming a key member of this Torino side. His game style has even drawn comparison to Rodri with recent rumours suggesting Manchester City have earmarked him as the heir to Rodri. Ricci is the architect of this team who sets the tempo for them and keeps things neat and tidy in the middle. 

Nico Paz (Como)

Como have been reaping the rewards for signing this upcoming talent who has adjusted to the demands of the top flight in an impressive way. The former Real Madrid talent has hit the ground running for them scoring one and assisting another two in the opening seven games.

This number doesn’t highlight the impact he is having on the team. Paz so far has created the biggest chances in the league (5) and was rewarded for his outstanding start at Como with a call-up to the Argentina national team in the recent international break.
