Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Torino in 9th and Fiorentina in 13th place.

It's no vacation for neither Torino nor Fiorentina as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Torino form and stats

When playing at home in the Serie A, Torino have managed 3 wins, 2 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 8 games.

Torino's last game was hosting Fiorentina (placed 13th) and winning 2-1. In the game before, an away victory match versus Genoa with a 1-0 scoreline.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Torino have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found nine matches with the results: Won 3 Drawn 3 Lost 3.

Torino are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 8 games. Torino have conceded 10 in these home matches.

Fiorentina form and stats

Fiorentina have only collected 8 points from their away games in the Serie A, after 2-2-4 (8 played). With the Fiorentina losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Fiorentina are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

Fiorentina play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Torino (placed 9th). A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Cittadella.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Fiorentina in our archives, and the results are: 4 wins for Fiorentina, 4 draws and 2 defeats.

Fiorentina have scored 11 goals on their travels this season, from 8 away games in the league. Fiorentina have conceded 14 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

The two sides played each other earlier this season: Torino - Fiorentina 2-1. Last ten meetings between the teams: Torino won 3, Fiorentina won 4 and 3 draws. 6 games with over 2,5 goals, 4 matches with two goals or less.
