Walter Mazzarri’s side, who have been on an impressive run of form in recent weeks, will be looking to keep the momentum going when they welcome struggling Fiorentina to the Turin’s Olimpico this week.

Though Fiorentina are just a point behind the hosts in 13^th place, they have been struggling in recent games, failing to consistently get the three points under their belt.

Vincenzo Montella will be looking to steady the tide, starting with a positive result this weekend against Torino. They will have to dig really deep to salvage even a point against Granata, given the recent form of the hosts.

Torino v Fiorentina Team News

The home side saw off the challenge of Genoa last time out at Stadio Luigi Ferraris but had to scrap really hard for the victory. A game which lacked intensity from start to finish, Torino’s defender Gleison Bremer turned savior for the hosts, heading the ball home to clinch maximum points.

Bremer’s first ever Serie A goal was enough to move his club higher up the ladder to 10^th position. Torino have now won two of their previous three league fixtures and will be looking to keep up the momentum against La Viola in this fixture.

The Maroons record on home soil have been pretty decent, registering two wins, two draws and three defeats in front of the home crowd this season. That is considered a satisfactory one by all standards.

Averaging 0.86 goals every game while allowing 1.29 at the other end of the pitch, Torino will be looking to end their disappointing four-game winless spell in their own backyard.

Fiorentina, on the other hand, have been giving their best shot so far this season but have only a 13^th spot on the standings to show for all their efforts. Vincenzo Montella’s future at the club seems to be hanging on a thin thread at the moment, following their third straight defeat on the bounce.

Against struggling Leece last time out, they kept plugging away but never really found a way past the opposition goalkeeper eventually falling to yet another defeat, to pile on the pressure on Montella.

It goes without saying that La Viola are in desperate need of a prolific striker to add to their ranks as goals have been difficult to come by for the visitors. Creating chances hasn’t been the problem but getting the ball into the net has proved a herculean task for Fiorentina this season.

The game is expected to be sparked into life in the second period, given that the hosts have scored five of their six goals at this venue after the break. Fiorentina have also scored 8 of their 10 away goals during the second forty-five minutes of the game.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Torino: Iago Falque, Lyanco, Andrea Belotti, Simone Edera.

Fiorentina: Franck Ribéry, Germán Pezzella.

Torino vs Fiorentina Predictions

The hosts are surely in a better place at the moment but the injury to Andrea Belotti will be a huge blow to Walter Mazzarri’s side. However, the Italian forward might not be so much missed, given the impressive form backup striker Alex Berenguer has been on in recent weeks.

The Spaniard has registered 3 goals in 7 games this season. Count on home advantage coupled with Berenguer’s red-hot form in front of goal to lead Torino to a win in this tie.
