AS Roma welcome the visitors Torino F.C. in the Italian Serie A – Round 20. The match will be held on Saturday, January 19th, at the Stadio Olimpico (Rome).
Having failed the start to the campaign, AS Roma have gradually kicked into gear. The team’s first-term bad results were mostly attributed to their parallel Champions League fixtures. Now the hosts may concentrate solely on the national competition. They featured a great end of the calendar year, registering three wins in four latest rounds, losing to Juventus only (not surprisingly). Roma’s home performance also improved lately – in three previous rounds on their turf, the team celebrated two wins. We consider them favorites in the coming clash against Torino F.C.

The visitors are quite a solid middle-class team that can surprise at times. Note that in the end of 2018, they conceded only once in 5 Serie A encounters and took points from the opponents like Milan and Lazio. The winter break will hardly benefit them though. This way or another, Torino’s Saturday opponent’s class is higher. Moreover, they face an outing. In this season, the visitors do not feature many losses, they did not concede in any of their trips so far. Anyways, it will definitely happen one day. Sooner or later, Torino’s no-loss away streak will break. The outing against Roma seems just the right time for this.
The opponents’ head-to-heads’ record suggests that Roma have been uncomfortable for Torino lately. The Romans were stronger in 4 of 5 latest encounters. In 2018, the teams met twice, both games saw Torino’s defeats. In the first-term clash, Roma beat the opponent out, 1:0, and in the latest head-to-head, the Romans welcomed Torino and smashed them, 3:0. So, we predict their win on Saturday as well.
Prediction for the match: AS Roma to win home.
