Juventus vs Torino preview, prediction, team news, and head-to-head

This Serie A clash involves two local rivals who, regardless of their current form, will do everything to come out victorious after 90 minutes.

Luciano Spalletti started his tenure as Juventus' manager with a 2-1 win against Cremonese last Saturday. The Old lady also snatched a point in a 1-1 draw against Sporting in the Champions League on Tuesday.

These results show the new coach started well but has a lot of work to do, starting with winning this local derby. With 4 points adrift of the table leaders, , a win in this fixture will put the team in a better position on the league table and help in keeping the title race hope alive. 

Torino has been impressive lately, after struggling at the start of the season. The visiting team is now unbeaten in their last 5 games, including a shocking 1-0 win against Napoli.

The visitors were able to force a 2-2 draw against newly promoted side Pisa after being 2-0 down. This shows how resilient the team can be to get results. Marco Baroni will be hopeful that his team continues this run of form and causes an upset in Turin.

Matches between Juventus and Torino have mostly been a one-sided affair. The host won six out of their last ten meetings (4D). 

The last time Torino won against the Old Lady was far back in 2015 in a dramatic 2-1 victory that saw them come back from a goal down to win the match.

The home team will still be without Gleison Bremer and Lloyd Kelly, giving room for Koopmeiners to continue keeping the defence line tight. Goal-scoring duties still fall on Dusan Vlahovic to lead the attack for the team.

The Torino coach will miss this important derby due to the red card he received in the last match against Pisa. Baroni will also miss Franco Israel and Perr Schurrs , who are still out injured.

Juventus: Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Gatti, Koopmeiners, Locatelli, Cambiasso, Thuram, Kostic; Conceicao, Yildiz, Vlahovic

Torino: Paleari; Ismajli, Maripan, Coco; Pedersen, Ilic, Casadei, Lazaro; Vlasic; Simeone, Adams

Given both teams' excellent spirits heading to this game, football fans should expect the thrill and entertainment that come with derbies.
