Torino form and stats

There's been little loot from Torino's travels as they have only collected 10 points from 13 away games in the Serie A. Torino only have 2 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 4 draws. Two points from the last two away games for Torino, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.

There were no winners in Torino's previous match, the home game that ended 1-1 vs Inter (placed 3rd). Bremer, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.83. Bremer scored one goal and won 8 of 14 duels.
