Torino – Genoa

Torino and Genoa square off in Serie A on Friday evening having both put together lengthy streaks without recording a win. While the home side remain in 12th position in the standings, Genoa have recently dropped into the relegation zone. Torino had been on course to cement their spot in the top half of the table, but a tough run of fixtures has halted their progress.

However, I Rossoblu now have the second-worst defensive record in the division, a consequence of no clean sheets being posted this campaign. Torino’s home record is almost identical to Genoa’s form on the road, both clubs acquiring four points from as many games with the latter scoring and conceding twice as many times.

With neither team firing on all cylinders, we have little choice but to back a share of the spoils. While Torino are the marginal favourites, we cannot ignore Genoa’s ability to get involved in thrilling draws.
