Torino – Fiorentina – 29.01.2021 – Prediction

The Italian Calcio returns on our screens with the opening game of Round 20. The fighting for saviour team of Torino hosts the team of Florence Fiorentina in an intriguing and highly-expected game. The match is set to be played at Olimpico di Torino at 19:45 GMT 0.

Hopes for improvement under new manager

Torino appointed Davide Nicola as their new manager on 19th, January, 2021. Since then, the team failed to win in two games but it went unbeaten either. Torino recorded two draws against Spezia (0-0 H) and Benevento (2-2 A) but showed some positive signs for improvement under the rule of the new manager. We think that Torino is to make an ascent in the league table with several good displays at the beginning of Nicola’s career at Torino.

Fiorentina – the unpredictable team

It is always hard to predict Fiorentina. The team is neither close to the Europa League positions, neither is endangered from any potential relegation for now. There are no trends or rows in their performance but only ups and downs. Fiorentina can beat Juventus 0-3 and on the next game to fail to beat Bologna at their stadium (0-0).

Our verdict

We assume that we are taking a risk with predicting a match where Fiorentina participates but the we are focusing on the new appointment at Torino and the expected rise in the performance. We think that Torino will not lose this game as there won’t be many goal-scoring opportunities as well.
