Torino vs Genoa Prediction & Match Preview

Steffen Schmidt - October 21, 2021

Torino vs Genoa
Italy – Serie A
Date: Friday, 22 October 2021
Kick-off at 17:30 UK / 18:30 CET
Venue: Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino.

This is an ideal fixture for Torino to get their campaign up and running. Their rivals took only two points from the last three Serie A outings despite playing the likes of Verona, Salernitana, and Sassuolo in the process. The home win has to be the way to go at the 1.80 odds.

Torino vs Genoa Head-to-head

• Torino have tradition to back them up here.
• They won 11, drew 7, and lost just 1 of the last 19 home clashes against Genoa.
• Also, Torino will go into this on the back of six wins and two draws in the last eight meetings with Genoa.
• Genoa notched only one goal in the last three encounters against Il Toro.

Torino vs Genoa Predictions & Analysis

Torino and Genoa will raise the curtain on the Matchday No 9 in Serie A on Friday evening at Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino.

The hosts will have a nice opportunity to end a two-game losing run. They offered a great resistance against both Juventus and Napoli in the last two rounds, but ended up conceding late goals and losing a precious point in both affairs.

We have to praise the work Ivan Juric has done to improve Torino’s back line this season. Although they lost the last two matches, the way they defended against such high-quality sides like Juve and Napoli was quite impressive.

After all, Il Toro kept Napoli at just three shots on target (10 in total) last weekend away at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

The hosts are now looking ahead of a winnable fixture. They’ve shown strength against weaker teams so far in the season already. We should remember a 4-0 drubbing of Salernitana in mid-September.

Genoa will travel to Turin off the back of five consecutive outings without a victory. They barely avoided a defeat on Sunday, scoring the 90th-minute equalizer in a home draw to Sassuolo (2-2).

Key Stats for Betting

• Torino conceded only four goals in the last six league outings despite playing the likes of Lazio, Juventus, and Napoli in the process.
• They won six and drew two of the last eight clashes against Genoa.
• Genoa took one point from the last two matches against the likes of Salernitana and Sassuolo.
• They have scored just once in the last three games against Torino.
