Juventus vs Torino Prediction, Preview, Lineups and Team News| Serie A, November 9, 2024

Preview

• Date: Saturday, November 9
• Kick-off Time: 7:45 pm GMT
• Venue: Allianz Stadium, Torino, Italy

Matchday 12 of the 2024/25 Serie A season will include one of the biggest fixtures in the Italian football calendar. Juventus and Torino will play out the Turin derby at the Allianz Stadium. The Old Lady is in the sixth spot in the table, just four points off the summit. Torino, on the other hand, is in tenth with 14 points so far. The Juventus vs Torino fixture has produced some absolute classics over the years and this time should be no different.

Juventus as a football club has found life once again under Thiago Motta. Massimiliano Allegri oversaw a pessimistic and challenging time at Juventus. Thiago Motta has been successful in implementing his game plan which has been able to produce results. Although the record Italian champions have only won victory in the last four games, the supporters are hopeful of witnessing a successful season. A rock-solid defence has been the backbone of Juventus’ joy this season, with the most clean sheets in Serie A (eight). Juventus’ main goal is to lift its 37th Scudetto and the objective remains very achievable at the moment.

Torino’s recent form has been atrocious. In the last six games, the club has accumulated just a solitary victory accompanied by five defeats. During this period, Il Toro conceded 10 goals and scored just seven. Torino has failed to find the back of the net in the last two games, which needs to change to have any chance of a result against Juventus. Torino is one of the most potent teams in Italian football and can cause damage to even the best of the teams on its day.

Juventus vs Torino H2H Record

Key Players to watch in Juventus vs Torino

Kenan Yildiz (Juventus)

Kenan Yildiz has been one of the many players who have benefitted from the departure of Allegri and the arrival of Thiago Motta at Juventus. The Italian coach has entrusted Yildiz to be the game changer in the squad. The Turkiye international has rotated with Timothy Weah for the left-wing spot so far this season. At just 19 years of age, Yildiz is one of the most promising names in European football. His raw pace, agility, and dribbling will make him a handful against the Torino defenders.

Dusan Vlahovic (Juventus)

Dusan Vlahovic has been in tremendous goal-scoring form this season. The Serbian has nine goals in 15 appearances in this campaign for Juventus. Vlahovic is a splendid player with his back to goal, which has been one of the main reasons for Juventus’ success this term. Dusan Vlahovic can expect a monotonous evening with Torino defenders aiming to tightly mark him throughout the contest. He will be required to be at his clinical best to make the most of the chances that come his way.

Juventus vs Torino Prediction

Juventus should end the game with the three points in the bag. Thiago Motta might take a bit more risk to avoid another draw in the league. Torino will look to close out the spaces and prevent its city rivals from enjoying a free-flowing game.

Predicted Score: Juventus 2-0 Torino
