Venezia vs Torino Prediction
The Lagunari have endured a winless start to the 2024-25 season but after back-to-back 3-1 losses, they were held to a goalless draw last week. They will play for the first time at home this season. Interestingly, they are unbeaten in their last two home league outings and will look to build on that form.
Joel Pohjanpalo is a doubt for the match while Gianluca Cristiano Busio remains sidelined with an injury. New signings Joël Schingtienne and Antonio Raimondo are also doubts for this match.
Toro have enjoyed an unbeaten start to the season, winning two of their three games. They have scored two goals in each of their three games and are expected to continue their goalscoring form here.
Considering the current form of the two teams, the visitors should eke out a narrow win.
