Torino take on the visitors Frosinone in the 1/16-finals of Coppa Italia. The match will be played on Thursday, November 2nd at Stadio Olimpico di Torino (Turin).
Torino have been crowned champions of the country seven times and have won the cup six times. However, it's been a long time since their most recent success in 1993, after which they experienced a drop to Serie B. In 2021, the Bulls finished just above the relegation zone in 17th place. Understanding the need for improvement, Urbano Cairo, their president, invited Ivan Juric to take on the role of head coach. Juric's performance as the head of Verona in a similar position had been impressive. The Croatian immediately lifted his team to mid-table, and last season, after a major squad overhaul, he did it again. New expectations of progress awaited them in Turin, but this time not everything seems to be going well. The club started with a 0-0 draw against Cagliari and a 1-4 loss to Milan. After winning a couple of times in a row, the team once again went on a winless streak. It was only in the last round against Lecce that they managed to end the streak with a minimal but winning 1-0.

Frosinone are making its third attempt to establish itself in the top division. The Canaries began to perform relatively well not too long ago, even though the club was founded back in 1906. It took them a century to finally make their debut in Serie B. In 2015, they managed to move up to Calcio for the first time, but were immediately relegated. The second attempt in 2018/2019 didn't impress either. A new upswing occurred only thanks to winning the division in the last cycle. After that, the management bid farewell to Fabio Grosso, who had worked with them since 2021, and placed their trust in Di Francesco. He had done well with Sassuolo and Roma, but subsequently struggled at Sampdoria, Cagliari, and Verona. However, Eusebio is handling it well so far. His new charges even had a series of 5 matches without a loss, and in October, they defeated Verona. It seemed like they would secure 3 points in the match against Cagliari. However, despite scoring three goals, they allowed Ranieri's team to make an incredible, come-from-behind victory with four goals.
During their previous spells in Serie A, the Canaries lost all four matches to the Bulls. Torino are considered the clear favorite as the home team and the more experienced club. However, the Canaries have shown on multiple occasions that they are a formidable opponent. It's worth considering a both teams to score option.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
