An important duel in the bottom section of the Serie A, with both Torino and Benevento experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 17th and the visitors in 18th place.

Insights:
  • Torino have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Benevento, who are travelling more than 800 kilometers to play this game.

Torino are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Benevento are nearing the end of this stay in this division as relegation is now unavoidable.
