A thumping win right before the international break lifted Torino back into contention for a European place. Their heavy 5-1 dismantling of Cagliari put Il Toro just two points behind sixth placed Napoli. Can they continue their strong run of form when they head to Crotone on Sunday?
The hosts were taken apart themselves two weeks ago, after they lost 3-0 at Inter Milan. That left them adrift at the bottom of the Serie A table, things are looking pretty bleak for them heading in to this game. Is there any hope for Crotone, or are they already doomed to make a quick return to Serie B?
They did manage to pick up three points in their last game here after beating Chievo 2-0 which was their first ever Serie A victory. We’re expecting more goals that that at Stadio Ezio Scida this weekend. Crotone have conceded in 80% of their home matches, and it’s difficult to see them keeping another clean sheet this time around.
Plus, they’re facing a Torino side who are much stronger going forward than Chievo. They’ve scored 10 and conceded 10 away from home so far, which averages out a 1.67 goals at each end of the pitch per game. Both of these two tend to see a lot of goalmouth action, seeing as 80% of Crotone’s games at home have seen both teams find the back of the net.
Torino are just as goal friendly, with 83% of their games seeing both teams score. After that, it’s hardly surprising that the visitors have seen over 2.5 goals in their last seven Serie A matches. Of those seven, Il Toro have scored twice or more in six of them. Crotone have seen more than two goals in 67% of their home matches in Serie A, while those games average exactly three goals each in total. Torino’s total away works out at 3.33 per outing so far.
This seems like the perfect opportunity for Torino to put more points, and goals, on the board. They’ve probably need to score a few to get maximum points out of this one, since Crotone have scored in 100% of their home matches so far. Given how these two are more than accustomed to goals this term, we see this as a high scoring clash. Our tip here is both teams to find the net, and over 2.5 in total. That’s priced at 11/10 with bet365.
