Torino Vs Genoa Serie A Match Preview

TORINO, Italy — Torino will face Genoa on Sunday, October 26, 2025, at the Stadio Olimpico Grande after a recent win against Italian champions Napoli. The match kicks off at 11:30 a.m. UK time, and Torino hopes to build on their recent success as Genoa struggles for their first Serie A victory this season.

Torino, currently sitting in 14th place with eight points, is coming off a significant 1-0 victory over Napoli. The defining moment of that match occurred when a Napoli loanee managed to outmaneuver Torino’s goalkeeper to score. Following that game, Torino’s defenders showed resilience by keeping four clean sheets in five matches this season.

Genoa, in stark contrast, is positioned at the bottom of the league with only three points and is still searching for their first win of the season. They have drawn their last game against Parma and have not won any of their previous eight top-flight fixtures, marking their worst start since 2017. “It’s crucial for us to find form before it’s too late,” said Genoa coach. “We must turn things around quickly.”

Historically, Torino has been strong against Genoa, with only one loss in their last 14 Serie A meetings. Recent matches have often ended in draws, but Torino’s home advantage at the Olimpico could play a key role this time. The last Genoa win at Torino dates back to May 2009, highlighting their struggles away from home.

Genoa will be facing significant pressure on their offense, as they aim to improve their scoring after a series of disappointing results. Coach Vieira will need to decide on his attacking lineup, considering options like Caleb Ekuban and AC Milan loanee Lorenzo Colombo to revitalize their front line.

For Torino, defender Maripán is expected to return to the lineup, while winger is nursing a thigh injury. Torino’s recent form has shown inconsistency, with two wins and two losses in their last five matches. “We are prepared to take advantage of Genoa’s weaknesses,” said Torino’s defender.

This match is shaping up to be a tactical battle with both teams aiming for crucial points as they navigate the season. Bwin predicts a Torino win with a scoreline of 2-0 against Genoa.
