Serie A Derby Della Mole: Juventus vs. Torino Preview, Odds, Prediction

The match between Juventus and Torino, or Derby Della Mole, is one of the world’s greatest city derbies. The eyes of all the football fans in Italy will for sure be pointed towards Allianz Stadium, where Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates await Andrea Belotti and Torino. This derby’s intensity is much higher than anyone could imagine, and even though Torino isn’t among the top teams in Serie A anymore, this team is one of the biggest in Italy, with a fantastic history that was way greater than Juve’s at one point.

Juventus vs. Torino Preview

Juventus (-290) was routine against Dynamo Kyiv this Wednesday, defeating the Ukrainian powerhouse at home, 3-0. It was a nice relief following a 1-1 draw on the road in Benevento, which was something nobody expected.

Over the last 10 matches, the Old Lady has just one defeat, with six victories and three draws. That one failure was in the UCL against Barcelona, 0-2, in a match that saw Juve dominated by the guests. However, the hosts appeared without Cristiano Ronaldo back then, and saw Alvaro Morata’s three canceled goals.

Juve won three previous home matches, with a combined goal difference of 7-1, scoring two goals in each of those events, and keeping clean sheets twice.

Torino (+650) is going up and down, posting inconsistent results all the time. In the last six events, they have two wins, losses, and draws each. Their matches are more than interesting, often providing lots of goals, comebacks, and unusual closures.

That was the case at home against Lazio. The guests from Rome went home with a 3-4 win, scoring twice inside the last five minutes. Against Inter on the road two weeks ago, Torino took the lead in the first half, had a two-goal edge, only to see them allowing four straight and suffering another defeat.

Three of their latest events on the road saw both sides scoring and over 2.5 goals.

Juventus vs. Torino Prediction

With Torino’s offensive approach and their shaky defense, we should see many goals in Saturday’s event. We won’t be greedy here, but propose Juventus’ victory and over 2.5 goals, with the odds on that -120. Ronaldo is hungry and in very good shape lately when it comes to scoring, so you might bet on him to hit the back of the net as well.
