Lazio vs Torino Preview, Prediction, Possible Lineups and Betting Tips

Lazio will be looking for back-to-back victories for the first time this season as Maurizio Sarri’s side welcome Torino on October 4th and you can find a full preview, prediction, possible lineups and betting tips below.

Lazio vs Torino Preview

The Laziali have endured a difficult start to the Serie A season, winning just two of their opening five league matches and currently sit 12th in the table.

Worryingly, Lazio’s defeats to Como, Sassuolo and Roma have all occurred without the Laziali scoring a goal, highlighting the need for some firepower in attack.

This lack of substance up front came after a recent transfer ban, however, Maurizio Sarri’s side have received a boost in recent days as Lazio’s transfer ban could be lifted.

Alongside this news, the Serie A giants picked up a huge victory in their latest league clash, as Sarri’s men beat Genoa 3-0 away from home thanks to goals from Matteo Cancellieri, Taty Castellanos and Mattia Zaccagni.

Sarri will not be able to call upon a host of players for the clash on October 2nd, as Samuel Gigot, Manuel Lazzari and Matteo Guendouzi will all miss out.

Lazio’s upcoming opponents have made a similar start to the Serie A season, as Torino have picked up just four points from the five league matches so far.

Most recently, the Turin-based side were beaten 2-1 by Parma and made it two consecutive defeats in Serie A, as Marco Baroni’s side continue to struggle – scoring just two league goals so far.

Matters have been made worse for Torino going into their match against Lazio, as Ardian Ismajli has joined Faustino Anjorin and Ivan Ilic on the sidelines.

Lazio vs Torino Prediction

This fixture has been rather successful for Lazio in recent years, as the Laziali have picked up six wins and Torino have won on just a singular occasion.

Between 2021-2022, Lazio and Torino played out four consecutive stalemates in Serie A, which is also how their most recent meeting ended in March of this year.

We believe Lazio will be buoyed by their recent victory and progression to the Coppa Italia Ro16, meaning Maurizio Sarri’s side should be victorious on October 4th.

Prediction: Lazio 2-0 Torino

Lazio vs Torino Betting Tips

Taty Castellanos To Score At Any Time: +150

The Argentinian striker was Lazio’s biggest goal-threat last season, contributing to 19 goals in 30 appearances across all competitions (14G +5A) and has started to find form once again.

In Lazio’s last Serie A fixture, the 26-year-old provided the assist for his sides opening strike and went on to score a goal of his own to secure all-three points.

So far, Castellanos has contributed to five goals in five league appearances this season (2G + 3A) and will be looking to take advantage of a Torino defense that has conceded the most goals in Serie A this season (10, joint with Lecce).
