Torino and Sampdoria meet at the Stadio Grande Torino after suffering defeats in midweek.

There are just two points between the two sides in the Serie A table, but the feeling is that Torino and Sampdoria found themselves in very different positions.

Torino lost to Torino at San Siro on Tuesday, while Sampdoria lost 3-1 at home against Atalanta.

Andrea Belotti is expected to start in Torino’s attack with Marko Pjaca, Cristian Ansaldi and Rolando Mandragora still out of action.

Sampdoria must cope without their starlet Mikkel Damsgaard who may return after the November break.
