Thousands of Toro fans have made the short journey to the Stadio Giuseppe Moccagatta to watch their team play in European competition.

The Granata had originally missed out, but Milan’s exclusion due to Financial Fair Play issues bumped Roma up to the group stage and allowed Torino to take the preliminary round slot.

Andrea Belotti leads a 3-4-3 formation flanked by Iago Falque and Alex Berenguer, with Lyanco in the back three following his impressive displays for Brazil at Under-20 level.

It is practically a full-strength squad, with only Tomas Rincon on the bench after playing for Venezuela in the Copa America.

Hungarians Debrecen already played the first preliminary round, beating Albanian side Kukesi 3-0 at home and drawing 1-1 away.

Their strikers are the ones to watch, specifically.

Kevin Varga scored two goals in the last round and is definitely one to watch, but there are surprise picks upfront, where Nikola Trujic and Daniel Zsori start rather than Haruna Garba and Tamas Takacs.

Torino: Sirigu; Izzo, Nkoulou, Lyanco; De Silvestri, Baselli, Meite, Ansaldi; Falque, Belotti, Berenguer

Torino bench: Rosati, Vojnovic, Lukic, Zaza, Singo, Millico, Rincon

Debrecen: Nagy; Kinyik, Szatmari, Pavkovics, Ferenczi; Szecsi, Haris, Varga; Trujic, Zsori

Debrecen bench: Kosicky, Barna, Pinter, Takacs, Kusnyir, Czosz, Garba
