Marco Borriello leads the line for Genoa, while Torino drop Matteo Darmian for a potential Europa League showdown.
The Grifone are still attempting to qualify for the Europa League by finishing in sixth place, as they are appealing a decision not to grant a UEFA licence.
A win tonight would see Gian Piero Gasperini’s men move to within one point of city rivals Sampdoria.

The Grifone are still attempting to qualify for the Europa League by finishing in sixth place, as they are appealing a decision not to grant a UEFA licence.
A win tonight would see Gian Piero Gasperini’s men move to within one point of city rivals Sampdoria.
The visitors have European ambitions of their own, although the Granata suffered a huge setback last Wednesday when they lost at home to Empoli.
Despite that reverse, a win would lift Toro to within three points of a Europa League place, with three games of the season still to play.
Both sides are lining up in a 3-5-2 system, with Mbaye Niang partnering Borriello for the hosts.
Giampiero Ventura has decided to pair Maxi Lopez with Fabio Quagliarella, with the former having been benched for the aforementioned defeat to Empoli.
Despite a calamitous own-goal in that match, Daniele Padelli keeps his place in goal, with Bruno Peres coming back in at right wing-back for Italian international Darmian.
