The Azzurri make a return to league action, following their midweek Champions League draw with Spanish champions, Barcelona. Rino Gattusho’s employment has proved to be the breath of fresh air Napoli needed, and the Naples side are finally finding their feet in the league.

Napoli have won four of their last five encounters in the league, and currently occupy the sixth position on the league table, with thirty-six points from twenty-five games. With Champions League qualification looking more, and more difficult to attain, Napoli will aim to achieve a strong end to the season which sees them guarantee a Europa League spot, at least.

In stark contrast to the hosts, Torino can’t seem to get a win anywhere to save their skins and might soon discover gold with the rate at which they’re dropping down the league table. Il Granata have lost each of their last six league matches and are now only five points away from the relegation zone.

Napoli vs Torino Team News

Napoli claimed a respectable result at home to Barcelona in midweek, drawing 1-1 with the Catalans in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie. While that result has only really delayed their exit from the competition ahead of the away second leg, the result was a major boost for Gennaro Gattuso and his men.

The hosts have really struggled over the last few months, so they are hoping to continue their recent bounce in their chase for Europe. The Partenopei have a great opportunity to boost their Europa League chase, as they are meeting a Torino side who look dreadful at the moment.

The visitors saw their weekend clash called off, which has left them in terrible form in 2020. Torino have lost their last six matches in all competitions, which has pushed them into 14th place in Serie A.

Having started the campaign with European ambitions, Torino should be worried that they sit only five points clear of the drop zone.
In that time, Torino have conceded 21 goals. The visitors have now conceded 1.8 goals per away game, which has left them with one of the league’s poorest travelling records.

Torino have now lost seven times on the road this season, while they’ve conceded 17 goals across their seven clashes with sides in Serie A’s top six.
The hosts are into the top six at long-last, having taken their time to get back on track under Gennaro Gattuso. Their result against Barca was a welcome bonus, but the hosts have seen some fine Serie A form in recent weeks.

The Partenopei had won six of seven matches in all competitions before that Barca game, while the hosts have scored twice or more in four of their last five Serie A outings.

With Torino struggling for form in defence, we see them struggling here. This Napoli attack is looking much improved, with the club on the up now.

Napoli vs Torino Predictions

Napoli pushed Barcelona all the way in the first leg of their UCL tie in midweek but had to settle for a draw. They will be eager to return to winning ways as they host Torino and having won four of their last five matches in Serie A, the home side should be able to improve on that record.
