Paolo Vanoli’s Torino host Cesc Fabregas’ Como 1907 side.

Key Stats

Team Previews, Form, and Standout Players

Only two points separate the teams, so it could be a vital match-up in terms of shaping the league table.

Torino Preview

Torino Predicted Line-up - Vanja Milinkovic-Savic; Sebastian Walukiewicz, Saul Coco, Adam Masina; Valentino Lazaro, Samuele Ricci, Karol Linetty, Nikola Vlasic, Mergim Vojvoda; Che Adams, Antonio Sanabria

Whilst Torino started the season well, with a draw against AC Milan and a win over Atalanta, they’ve slipped into a spell of bad form.

They’ve lost their last four, but will see Como as a perfect opportunity to return to winning ways.

Captain Karol Linetty will be key to lead his side through this tough period

Como 1907 Preview

Como 1907 Predicted Line-up - Emil Audero; Ignace Van Der Brempt, Marc-Oliver Kempf, Alberto Dossena, Alberto Moreno; Maximo Perrone, Sergi Roberto; Gabriel Strefezza, Nico Paz, Alieu Fadera; Patrick Cutrone

Como will be unlikely to change their lineup, since they performed so well in their 1-1 draw with Parma.

They’ve done pretty well for a promoted side, although after all the hype this summer they probably expected to be further away from the relegation zone at this stage of the season.

Captain Patrick Cutrone’s experience at this level will be as vital as always.
