TORINO v PARMA PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS

This is a fixture between two evenly matched sides that have both made a solid start to the season and are in mid table positions. Torino are two places and one point above their opponents at the weekend. The only difference between the teams is that Torino have won one more match than the visitors. Matches involving these sides have on average produced marginally more than 2.5 goals. However, there have been just six goals in Torino’s four home matches and only five in the same number of matches that Parma have contested on the road.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Torino lost their last match at home to Cagliari. That side were winning for the first time this season so a home win was expected. In a game of few chances possession was shared and Cagliari scored the deciding goal with a late penalty. Rolando Bianchi is the side’s top scorer to date and is expected to play. Parma had 58% of the possession in their latest match, a 2-1 home win against Sampdoria. Their opponents had just one shot on target which suggests Parma were effective in not allowing conceded possession to bring about goal scoring opportunities for their opponents. This match is unlikely to produce many chances and both sides will have a decent share of the ball in midfield. Seven different players have scored this season for Parma and only one has scored more than once.

TORINO - PARMA PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

On current form there is little to choose between the teams but home advantage could be the key factor in determining the outcome of this match. For their relative positions in the current standings Torino have a poor record at home and Parma have underperformed on their travels. That means positions in the table are based on better away form and results at home respectively. Torino will be looking to get back on track following their latest reverse and on the balance of recent results and form from last season the game against Parma is one they can win.

TORINO - PARMA PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

All the relevant statistics suggest this will be a low scoring game with few scoring opportunities. A home win is anticipated but the margin of victory is unlikely be more than one goal. Both teams not to score looks interesting but the best bet in the handicap markets is Parma with a goal start. A drawn match will make this a winning bet and if the match is won by Torino with supremacy of one goal the bet is voided.

TORINO - PARMA PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

This has all the makings of a low scoring game and correct draw bettors may even consider a goalless draw. Torino are far from prolific at home but concede few on their own ground. Parma have scored three goals in four away matches and that average is unlikely to be improved upon after this match against Torino.

Take the 1.57 for less than three goals with William Hill.
