The 2024-25 edition of Serie A is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Torino take on Marco Baroni's Lazio side in an important encounter at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino on Sunday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.
Torino vs Lazio Preview
Lazio are in eighth place in the Serie A standings and have been fairly impressive this season. The Biancocelesti eased past Dynamo Kyiv by a 3-0 scoreline in the UEFA Europa League in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
Torino, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table and have been in excellent form over the past month. The home side slumped to a 2-1 defeat against Empoli in the Coppa Italia this week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Torino vs Lazio Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
