Torino vs Fiorentina Preview

Tournament: Serie A

Date: 29th August 2025

Kick-off Time: 4:30 PM (GMT)

Venue: Olimpico di Torino

In the Gameweek 2 of Serie A thrilling matches, we will see Torino host Fiorentina on Sunday, 31st August 2025, at Olimpico di Torino. Both teams have their priority set on earning the full three points after a slow start in Gameweek 1. After suffering a 5-0 loss against Inter on matchday 1, Marco Baroni's side will need more than inspiration for their 2nd league game, even when they are playing on their home soil. On the other hand, Fiorentina secured a draw against Cagliari when Stefano Pioli's team ended the 90 plus additional minutes with a 1-1 scoreline on matchday 1. If we turn the pages of the history book, we know Fiorentina is the side that Torino have the most wins against in Serie A. However, in their last five games, Fiorentina had the upper hand against Torino. Their recent match on 19th January 2025 resulted in a 1-1 draw.

As things stand, Fiorentina are heading into the fixture with a competitive edge when it comes to both attack and defense, especially given how Torino have dealt with Inter in their opening game. In terms of both teams scoring goals, Fiorentina is miles clear from Torino as they have netted nine goals in their last five games, while Torino has only netted three. For the hosts, Ismajli, Schuurs, and Savva are the biggest concerns due to injuries. On the other hand, Fiorentina would miss Kouame for this fixture due to injury. Fiorentina have key players such as Moise Kean, who can find the inspiration for the much-needed three points of an away game. On the other hand, the hosts rely on Giovanni Simeone as he is one of the key players in the current Torino squad. Who would come out on top this Sunday as these two clash for the three points? Tune in to find out!

Torino News

The injury list has affected the defense of Torino. All the big names like Ismajli, Savva, and Schuurs are ruled out and will not be present even on the bench this Sunday. The defensive duo of Masina and Coco is expected to begin the game on Sunday. The midfield trio of Gineitis, Ilkhan, and Casadei is also expected to retain their respective positions. While we can expect Vlasic and Simeone to start the game again this Sunday, Aboukhalal might be the only change as he is expected to start on the right wing instead of Ngonge.

Fiorentina News

Stefano Pioli has the crucial decisions to make after their 3-2 win against Polissya Zhytonyr on Thursday. Like Torino, Fiorentina also have Kouame and Barak in the injury list. They will start the game with their traditional 3-man defense, where we can expect Comuzzo, Mari, and Viti. The center midfield duo of Fagioli and Mandragora is also expected to be on Sunday's game against Torino. Edin Dzeko will not be leading the team from the front as Stefano Pioli wants to give him a break and start Kean. He will receive support from Fazzini and Ndour as they will be right behind him.

Key players to watch in Torino vs Fiorentina

Giovanni Simeone (Torino)

If there is one player who can give the Fiorentina 3-man defense a lot of trouble, it is the loaned player from Napoli, Giovanni Simeone.

His movements on and off the ball have been impressive during his three years playing for the Napoli senior team. His understanding of the game and natural flair as a striker are the reasons why Marco has brought him to this Torino squad that looks for better conversion rates up front. Even though Giovanni Simeone is yet to score a goal or bag an assist in the 2025-26 season, he is the most dangerous player in the Torino squad.

Moise Kean (Fiorentina)

While Fiorentina have quite a few players who can make the difference in Sunday's game, Moise Kean is the name that brings the most possibility of being the star player of the squad. In the 2024-25 campaign, Kean had 28 direct contributions for Fiorentina in 44 games across all competitions, scoring 25 goals and bagging three assists. While he is yet to score a goal and make contributions with playmaking, he is still the most lethal player in the current Fiorentina squad.

If the Torino defenders need to keep a close eye on one particular player on Sunday, it will be Moise Kean.

Torino vs Fiorentina Prediction

It is safe to say that the match can go to anyone when you look at the fixture without knowing the details on team news and latest results.

While Torino have the advantage of a home crowd on their side, due to the absence of marquee players in the defense, they are at a huge disadvantage. On the other hand, Fiorentina's latest win puts them on the right track as they travel to Torino for their match on Sunday. Even though they have kept the majority of their winning squad unchanged, if Torino can find the right inspiration and a tad of good fortune, they might be able to battle it out with the travelling side. For the hosts, protecting an early lead will be a priority. However, the odds are very less that Fiorentina will allow the hosts to accomplish that.

Predicted Score: Torino 0-2 Fiorentina
