The Serie A title race continues in these Torino vs. Milan predictions, as the league leaders travel to Piedmonte in search of three valuable points. The hosts have been in awful form of late and could provide the Rossoneri with the chance to return to winning ways.
Torino vs. Milan odds
1 – Milan to win – 10/11
2 – Under 2.5 goals – 13/17
3 – Milan to keep a clean sheet – 6/4
4 – Belotti to score anytime – 3/1
5 – Penalty in the match – 13/8
Torino take on league leaders Milan on Sunday afternoon looking for their first win over the Rossoneri in seven attempts. The visitors travel to the Stadio Grande Torino with a point to prove, having dropped two valuable points against Bologna last time out.
Ivan Juric’s side enjoyed a more positive matchday 31, as they ended a run of eight games without a win. Admittedly this was done from the penalty spot against the lowest ranked club in Serie A, but it should raise morale among the Granata.
Unfortunately for the hosts, their weekend opponents will bring more to the pitch than Salernitana did, and Juric will face a far tougher task keeping Milan at bay. Il Diavolo have now gone 11 games unbeaten and haven’t lost an away game since the November 20. Given Torino’s recent struggles, a bet on an away win looks likely to pay out on Sunday.
On paper, the match-up between Torino and Milan does not promise to be a particularly lively affair. The last four matches for the Granata have averaged out at a goal per game, while goalscoring has been at even more of a premium for the Rossoneri, who have played out two goalless draws and three 1-0 wins in their last five matches. Safe to say, looking at the stats, a punt on a low-scoring match at the Stadio Grande Torino would make sense.
For Milan, unlike Torino, the lack of goalscoring has barely been detrimental their cause, as each of these five games have ended with a clean sheet for Pioli’s side. The partnership at centre-back of Fikayo Tomori and Pierre Kalulu is quickly becoming one of the best in league and the duo make a bet on another clean sheet for Milan a solid option.
Looking to unlock the away defence, Andrea Belotti scored yet again last weekend. The Torino captain has been his consistent goalscoring self since returning from injury, bagging a goal every other game. Belotti scored only his first penalty of the season last weekend, meaning a bet on another goal from Il Gallo or another goal from either penalty spot could pay out against Milan.

Torino team news
Ivan Juric remains without a number of key players as Koffi Djidji, Antonio Sanabria, Mohammed Fares and Dennis Praet are out injured. Tommaso Pobega is available once again having missed last weekend’s win over Salernitana through suspension and will most likely start against his parent club.
Milan team news
Zlatan Ibrahimovic suffered a cut to the face on Monday but should recover to feature here, meaning Stefano Pioli has his full squad available. Whether Milan look to start the Swede over Olivier Giroud remains to be seen, while Ismail Bennacer may be benched in favour of Franck Kessie.
