Torino vs AS Roma – Match preview and team news

Torino team news

Torino enters tonight’s Serie A clash against AS Roma facing several forced adjustments to their spine, leaving head coach Ignazio Abate with key selection dilemmas.

Midfielder Cesare Casadei is officially ruled out with an ongoing muscular issue, while defender Saúl Coco remains a major doubt after picking up a knee injury against Fiorentina.

If Coco fails a late fitness test, Ardian Ismajli is expected to deputise in the backline, while goalkeeper Franco Israel is also anticipated to miss out.

In attack, Abate is monitoring late fitness updates for forwards Ché Adams and Giovanni Simeone. Both players are heavily tipped to spearhead the frontline, but any last-minute setbacks could force a tactical shift.

AS Roma team news

AS Roma manager Gian Piero Gasperini is expected to rotate his lineup heavily following a gruelling midweek Champions League draw against Fenerbahçe in Istanbul.

Midfield engine Manu Koné is suffering from minor muscular fatigue; though he travelled with the squad, he will likely be protected, opening the door for Niccolò Pisilli or Marten de Roon to start.

Conversely, Lorenzo Pellegrini provides a major boost, returning to full training and earning his first call-up of the season.

Up front, Paulo Dybala will likely be rested to prevent injuries after starting four consecutive matches.

This tactical rest allows Matías Soulé and Rodrigo Mora to slot into the attacking midfield roles, directly supporting the in-form Donyell Malen, who continues to lead the line for the Giallorossi.

Form

Torino

Torino has experienced a mixed start to their Serie A campaign under new boss Ignazio Abate. The Granata opened their domestic season on the back foot, suffering consecutive league defeats against AC Milan and Sassuolo, which was further compounded by a meek Coppa Italia exit at the hands of Monza. However, they found their rhythm in their last outing, securing a vital 2-1 away victory over Fiorentina to bounce back into the win column.

AS Roma

AS Roma enters this fixture in imperious league form, leading the early Serie A standings. The Giallorossi have maintained a perfect record domestically, capturing nine points from their opening three matches with dominant victories over Fiorentina, Lecce, and Atalanta. Aside from their domestic success, Gian Piero Gasperini’s side also extended their unbeaten run across all competitions to four matches following a hard-fought 1-1 Champions League draw away to Fenerbahçe in Istanbul.

Predicted lineups

Torino: Perri; Comuzzo, Ismajli, Comert; Belghali, Fitz-Jim, Mandragora, Cacciamani; Vlasic; Adams, Simeone

AS Roma: Svilar; Mancini, Ndicka, Ghilardi; Molina, Cristante, Pisilli, Wesley; Soule, Mora; Malen
