AS Roma vs Torino Preview

AS Roma vs Torino

Competition – Serie A

Stadium – Stadio Olimpico

Date: 9th March 2018

Kick-off time – 19:45 GMT

Before last Saturday’s game against Napoli, rumour had it that pressure had started to build on AS Roma’s manager, Eusebio Di Francesco.

They ended the game and those rumours in brilliant fashion after leaving Naples with a 4-2 win and they have now ensured that they start their season run-in in high spirits.

Roma are finding it hard to keep clean sheets after going five games without keeping one and they have kept just 1 clean sheet in their last 8 league games.

Torino are looking to end the season in a Europa League place at least, but two straight losses has placed them farther from the top seven.

They won at the Stadio Olimpico in the Coppa Italia earlier in the season and they will be looking to get another shock win here.

Torino would feel they have a chance in this game as games between them and Roma are almost always high scoring affairs.

There has been over  2-5 goals scored in 8 of the last 9 times they visited Roma and they have scored 5 times in their last 3 visits.
