Torino (home)
- Inter have the most impressive away record in Serie A this season, but Torino have won both of their last 2 games here, so we could see a competitive game on our hands when these sides clash on Sunday afternoon.
- The hosts have won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five league games.
- The Torino boss took charge in February and his 3-4-1-2 system is built around being compact and organised at the back, and playing a high-tempo, pressing game mainly when they win the ball back in the opposition half.
- Giovanni Simeone is their main goal threat, leading the team with nine Serie A goals in 27 appearances, while the forward has scored three of Torino’s last eight goals.
Inter (away)
- Inter have a dominant away record in Serie A this season, winning 12 of their 16 away matches and conceding an average of just 0.88 goals per away game.
- Cristian Chivu’s side are a class apart from the rest of the division right now and their sharp positional play and tactical flexibility have been the catalysts for their title charge.
- The Romanian tactician has overseen a run of four straight wins in all competitions and Inter come into this game unbeaten in five.
- The Nerazzurri can open up the game with their wingbacks providing width and they overload the centre of the park in the final third, where Lautaro Martinez is a constant threat.
