Fiorentina v Turin Betting Tips [19 September 2020]

Fiorentina will look to lean on their excellent home record against Torino when they start their Serie A 2020/21 campaign with a home match at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in Florence. Fiorentina ended last season in 10th place with 49 points, while Torino finished just above the relegation zone in 16th with 40 points.

Fiorentina haven’t lost to Torino at this venue in a Serie A match since October 1976 over a stretch of 30 matches. Furthermore, Fiorentina have lost only one of their last seven Serie A matches against Torino winning and drawing three each. Fiorentina ended their last season on a high, losing only one of their last nine league matches – winning five and drawing three. Each of those wins saw them score 2+ goals which give hope that the Viola will start on a high this season as well. Additionally, Fiorentina have lost just two of their last nine Serie A home matches – drawing the remaining five.

A new-look Torino will be keen to improve after a disastrous last campaign. The visitors have ended their season with no wins in five matches – drawing three and losing two. Additionally, they have lost six of their last 11 Serie A matches winning only twice. The away form is even dire with Torino losing eight of their last ten Serie A away matches drawing only two, although those two have come in the most recent fixtures. Six of those aforementioned ten have produced over 2.5 goals although the last three have seen under 2.5 goals.

Fiorentina haven’t lost at this venue to Torino in Serie A since October 1976, winning 16 and drawing 14. Additionally, they have scored in each of their last 13 matches against Torino which is their longest scoring streak in the competition against any opponent. Naturally, backing goals in this contest remains a viable option with over 2.5 goals pick coming to mind immediately. Conservative players can pick ‘Draw no bet’ on Fiorentina while a medium wager can be placed on a home win.
