Our predictions for Torino vs Napoli
Match Prediction: Torino 1-2 Napoli
Torino's recent form suggests a team struggling for consistency, with only one win in their last five matches. Their ability to score, as seen in the 3-3 draw against Lazio, could pose a threat to Napoli, but their defensive frailties, evident in losses to Parma and Atalanta, might be exploited.
Napoli have been more solid, winning four out of their last five games. Their attacking prowess, demonstrated by multiple goal victories against Pisa and Fiorentina, indicates they could capitalise on Torino's defensive issues.
The match is likely to be competitive, with Napoli's recent form giving them the edge. Torino's home advantage and occasional flair in attack might keep them in the game, but Napoli's consistency and ability to score should see them through. Torino may look to exploit any complacency from Napoli, but the visitors' superior form and tactical discipline should prevail.
Form Guide & Team Overview
Torino
Torino's recent performances have been mixed, with a single victory against Roma amidst draws and losses. Their ability to score, as shown in the draw against Lazio, suggests they can be dangerous going forward.
However, their defensive record, with three goals conceded against both Lazio and Atalanta, indicates vulnerabilities that Napoli could exploit. This inconsistency might affect their confidence and strategy against a strong Napoli side.

Torino (3-5-2)
Predicted lineup: Israel, Tameze, Maripán, Coco, Pedersen, Casadei, Asllani, Vlašić, Lazaro, Ngonge, Simeone
Torino's predicted lineup suggests a focus on attacking options with Vlašić and Simeone, but their recent defensive struggles could be a concern. The inclusion of Casadei and Asllani in midfield might provide the necessary balance to counter Napoli's attacking threat.
Napoli (4-1-4-1)
Predicted lineup: Milinković-Savić (if fit), Di Lorenzo, Beukema, Jesus, Olivera, Lobotka (if fit), de Bruyne, Anguissa, McTominay, Neres, Højlund
Napoli's predicted lineup indicates a strong attacking presence with Højlund and Neres, supported by the creative De Bruyne. Their recent form suggests they will look to exploit Torino's defensive weaknesses while maintaining a solid backline with Beukema and Jesus.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
Giovanni Simeone vs Sam Beukema: This duel will see Torino's forward Simeone challenging Napoli's defender Beukema, potentially crucial for Torino's attacking efforts.
Cesare Casadei vs Kevin de Bruyne: Torino's midfielder Casadei will need to contain Napoli's highly technical midfielder de Bruyne, who could dictate the tempo of the game.
Kristjan Asllani (Torino): Asllani's role in midfield will be vital for Torino, providing both defensive stability and creative passing to launch attacks.
Zambo Anguissa (Napoli): Anguissa's presence in midfield for Napoli will be key, offering both defensive solidity and the ability to transition play forward effectively.
