Fiorentina hope to keep their fantastic form going away to Che Adams’ Torino, with David De Gea and Moise Kean the key figures.

It kicks off at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino at 14.00 GMT.

You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from today’s four Serie A games on the Liveblog.

The Viola had a stuttering start to life under Raffaele Palladino, but have well and truly found their feet with six consecutive victories in all competition.

There is a Conference League trip to APOEL Nicosia coming up on Thursday, so Palladino rotates the squad, missing only Albert Gudmundsson and Marin Pongracic.

Kean returns to the starting XI following some injury concerns, sending Edoardo Bove back into his more traditional midfield role.

Torino are fresh off Thursday’s 1-0 defeat to Roma, having lost five of their last six competitive matches.

Losing Duvan Zapata for the season to a torn anterior cruciate ligament was a heavy blow, while Perr Schuurs, Zanos Savva, Emirhan Ilkhan and Ivan Ilic are also on the treatment table.

Scotland international Che Adams has made a good impact in Serie A with Samuele Ricci in midfield, but coach Paolo Vanoli resists the urge to change to a four-man defence.
