Torino
Starting with the hosts, managing to snatch an essential boost last time out as they dragged themselves to a 2-1 victory away at fellow strugglers Fiorentina, Torino will now be desperately searching for some domestic stability. However, opening up the 2026/27 campaign with consecutive 2-1 defeats against AC Milan and Sassuolo last month, Iganzio Abate’s men have gained an unwanted reputation for their extended inconsistencies. Watching their Coppa Italia adventure come to an abrupt end on September 1st as they slumped to a 1-0 defeat at home against Monza, the Bulls have won just a pair of their previous 10 appearances against top-flight opposition. Likewise, facing what could be another stern examination on Monday evening, Torino fell to a 2-0 loss when they last welcomed Roma to town for a Serie A showdown back on January 18th.
Torino Team News
Limping off against Fiorentina last week after picking up a reported knee issue, Torino are sweating over the fitness of former Las Palmas defender Saul Coco here. Still waiting to make a maiden Serie A appearance this season, Italian striker Pietro Pellegri remains on the sidelines with his respective knee injury.
Bagging a second top-flight strike of the campaign last time out, Scotland international Che Adams will spearhead Torino’s attack. Completing a season-long loan switch from Premier League outfit Leeds over the summer, Lucas Perri will start between the sticks.
Roma
As for the visitors, clinching a sensational bronze medal finish among Italy’s elite last season, Roma have once again embarked on a dominant start to proceedings. With the mood in their camp at a red-hot high, Gian Piero Gasperini’s men have rightfully received a string of plaudits. Getting the 2026/27 campaign underway with consecutive 4-0 romps against Fiorentina and Lecce last month, the former Atalanta boss will be calling on his record-breaking squad to lay down another public marker here. In fact, Roma have won all of their first three Serie A showdowns by an aggregate score of 10-1. Opening their Champions League adventure with a 1-1 stalemate away at Turkish giants Fenerbahce on Thursday evening, Gasperini’s side have also not tasted a single competitive defeat on their travels since the start of April.
Roma Team News
Still waiting to make a maiden Serie A appearance this season, Italian international Lorenzo Pellegrini remains on the sidelines with a long-term thigh injury. However, new recruit and former Atalanta midfielder Marten de Roon should get some more minutes under his belt.
Embarking on what has been an astonishing start to life in Rome and making his move from Aston Villa a permanent one over the summer, Donyell Malen will spearhead Gasperini’s attack. Putting pen to paper on a new deal at the Stadio Olimpico, Argentinian superstar Paulo Dybala will join Malen in the final third.
Torino vs Roma Key Factors to Consider
- When Torino and Roma last met for a Serie A showdown back on January 18th, the Wolves clinched a 2-0 victory on Turin.
- Roma have won each of their opening three Serie A appearances by an aggregate score of 10-1.
- In fact, the Wolves are one of just three top-flight clubs who can boast a 100% start to proceedings.
- Despite landing a 2-1 victory away at Fiorentina last time out, Torino have lost each of their other three matchups against top-flight opposition.
- Torino have failed to muster a single clean sheet in front of their own supporters since the start of March.
Conclusion
Embarking on what has become a sensational flurry, Roma will simply be looking to make another public statement here. Winning each of their opening three Serie A showdowns by an aggregate score of 10-1, Monday’s guests are one of just three clubs who can boast a 100% start to proceedings. Likewise, landing a deserved 2-0 victory when they last travelled to Turin back in January, the Wolves will be dreaming of a repeat performance. Meeting a leaky Torino defence, Roma’s clinical attacker could be smelling a potential opportunity.
