Unable to win a single match for 3 days, Ivan Juric's men were held to a draw by Monza 1-1 before suffering a defeat in the clash against Inter 0-1. Finally, last week the Romans were outclassed by Fiorentina 5-1. At the same time, they won their only success in 3 Europa League matches last week against a fairly modest Dynamo kyiv 1-0.

On top of that, starting defender Hermoso will be suspended after being sent off at the end of the first half against Fiorentina. The Ukrainian international Dovbyk (3 goals in SA) should be returned to the starting 11 along with Pellegrini (1 assist in SA) and Dybala (1 goal in SA). Against the Viola, the French international Manu Koné was the only one to save the honor for what was his first goal in Serie A.

Torino, for its part, went to the Stadio Olimpico deprived of the important attacking Zapata, of the usual holders Sosa, Tameze and Ilic, of the long-term absentee Schuurs, the promising Turkish midfielder Ilkhan and the Savva replacements who form a rather extensive absence list. Among the forces present, we can of course cite the names of the attackers Adams (3 goals in SA) and Sanabria (2 goals in SA) as well as influential midfielder Vlasic (1 goal and 2 assists in 3 SA games). Last weekend, substitute Alieu Njie was able to score the only goal of the match against Cômo.
