In this Serie A game Torino will host Inter.
Torino are 10th with 39 points. In the first half of the season Torino looked like a serious team which has a real chance of reaching Europe. However, in December began their decline. Since then, they managed to get only three wins out of fifteen competitive games. All of those wins came at home - against Genoa, Pescara and Palermo, which shows in what kind of crisis Torino really are. Also, they kept only two clean sheets during that period, with bottom-placed Pescara scoring three on them. On Friday they lost on their visit to Lazio 3:1. It was a game in which Lazio completely dominated in all aspects of play, and deservedly won. After an uneventful first half, Immobile gave hosts the lead in 56th minute. In 72nd minute, without having a single chance in the game, Torino levelled up, with Lopez scoring after Iturbe`s good cross from the free kick. Lazio knew that they are a better team, and continued their quest for all three points. And it paid off for them, when Keita scored in 87th minute. Felipe Anderson added another one only three minutes later and ensured that a better team takes all. The only noticeable missing for Torino will be Obi, but he is not a regular starter anyway.
Inter are 5th with 54 points. They have been in pretty good form for the last couple of months, even though they have four wins and three losses from the last seven competitive games. After losing to Roma 3:1 at home, they were brilliant in the next two games, beating Cagliari 5:1 and Atalanta 7:1. Especially impressive was their victory against in-form Atalanta which are their closest competitors for Europe places. Inter started the game great, and in 26th minute they were already 3:0 up. All three goals came from Icardi who completed a perfect hat-trick, scoring with his left foot, right foot and head, all in a space of just 9 minutes. Which was, if I may add, simply remarkable. Atalanta were completely stunned, and conceded another two in the next eight minutes, with both goals coming from Banega. Freuler put visitors on the scoreboard with his goal in 42nd minute, but that was all we saw from Atalanta. In the second half it was only a question how big Inter`s winning margin is going to be. We got our answer in 68th minute, when Banega completed his hat-trick after Gagliardini scored in 52nd, which set final result at 7:1. For this game Inter will be complete.
Inter are coming after two huge wins, and being in better form and having more quality team, they are favourites. However, despite Torino`s bad form, they have only one defeat at home this season, and have found a net in all but one home game. On the other hand, they rarely keep a clean sheet, and Inter should be able to exploit that, especially considering their recent scoring form. With Torino often being involved in a high scoring games, and Inter having trouble keeping clean sheet against attacking-minded teams, this game should bring us goals from both sides in another high-scoring clash. Both teams have found a net in nine out of the last ten Torino`s games, while seven of them also saw three or more goals. On the other hand, last three Inter`s games were a high scoring clashes, with both teams finding a net. Inter`s last two games finished 5:1 and 7:1, which tells us that even in convincing victories they couldn`t keep their net untouched. Therefore both teams to score and over 2.5 goals seems like a solid selection here.
