Torino vs AS Roma Prediction & Betting tips
AS Roma will start the season in Turin. Not with national champion Juventus, but with number nine last season Torino. Last season, Roma had no trouble with this team, it won at home with 3-0 and out with 0-1, so it did not get a goal. In the cup it was a different story, when Torino won 2-1 and Roma was already in the eighth final.
Torino:
Torino managed to finish four times in the left-hand row in the past five seasons and has thus become a fixture in the Serie A, while in the fifteen years before it mainly commuted between Serie A and B. To maintain this level, there are these summer big expenses, with Tomas Rincon (Juventus), M’Baye Niang (AC Milan), Nicolas N’Koulou (Lyon), Armando Izzo (Genoa), Bremer (Atletico Mineiro) and Soualiho Meite (Monaco) was there for 48 million purchased, the first three were already rented last season and could count on base places. Torino was able to strengthen itself well, since no important players left.
In the preparation we saw that the options for trainer Mazzari have increased and the current selection achieved excellent results. There were victories on teams from lower divisions like Pro Patria and Renate, Torino also won 1-0 vs. Nice and 2-0 against Chapecoense, then lost 3-1 to Liverpool. The Torino goal came from Andrea Belotti, who had a top season two years ago and was wanted by Manchester United, but could not make it last year. Was his piece of art once-only or can he help Torino once again in a top season? In the Coppa Italia he showed himself at least last weekend, he made two goals in the 4-0 win against Cosenza.
AS Roma:
AS Roma has had a busy transfer summer. Goalkeeper Allison left for Liverpool for 62 million, at that time the most expensive keeper ever. In addition, Radja Nainggolan also left, he went to competitor Inter. On the other hand, some fine purchases were made, left back Davide Santon came from Inter, Javier Pastore was taken for 25 million, dynamic midfielder Bryan Cristante is rented with option to buy from Atalanta and also talents Ante Coric and Justin Kluivert were picked up. Roma does not seem ready on the transfer market, after this week Neres proved too expensive, Leon Bailey seems to be the next candidate, also AC Milan attacker Suso and Marlos of Shakhtar Donetsk his options.
Because most strong keepers remained Di Francesco has another excellent team. The team with which AS Roma impressed last year in the Champions League is almost entirely intact, even in the preparation it showed at times that it is a team to take into account. For example, Barcelona won 4-2, but also lost Tottenham and Real Madrid.
