Roma vs Torino Prediction 14 September 2025
📊 What surprises might the clash between Roma and Torino bring in the third round of Serie A? Both teams underwent significant overhauls this summer: the "Giallorossi" brought in Gian Piero Gasperini and have started strong with two consecutive wins, while the "Granata," under new manager Marco Baroni, are still searching for their rhythm and have yet to find the back of the net. This contrasting start to the season makes the match at the Stadio Olimpico particularly intriguing.
Head-to-Head
📊 The head-to-head history between Roma and Torino in recent years clearly favors the capital club. Out of 39 encounters, the "Giallorossi" have secured 27 victories, with 6 draws and an equal number of defeats. Torino have struggled to overcome their rivals for quite some time now, with their last win dating back to 2021, during matches played behind closed doors. Last season, Roma also came out on top in both fixtures: narrowly winning at home (1-0) and more convincingly on the road (2-0).

Roma Team Overview
🔴 This summer, Roma underwent a significant transformation, with the headline event being the appointment of Gian Piero Gasperini as head coach. His football philosophy is well-known: an attacking style that saw Atalanta score dozens of goals each season, while also conceding 2-3 goals regularly. However, the start of the new campaign has shown that with the "Giallorossi," Gasperini is taking a more cautious approach. In their first two matches, Roma secured narrow 1-0 victories. It may not be as spectacular, but it is certainly effective.
📌 The win in the last round was particularly telling, as the team defeated Serie B newcomers Pisa. Some might argue that Roma should have dominated a weaker opponent, but the match was played away. Moreover, the "Giallorossi" had a noticeable statistical advantage and controlled the game's flow. For the start of the season, this result is quite acceptable, as the most important aspects are the points earned and the team's confidence in their play. In these areas, Roma currently look convincing.

Torino Team Overview
⚪ As the new season kicked off, there was a sense of cautious optimism surrounding Torino. The appointment of Marco Baroni was expected to inject fresh energy into the team. Analysts predicted that the "Bulls" would shed their reputation for defensive, cautious play and embrace a more attacking style. However, in practice, the transition has proven challenging. In their first two matches, Torino have yet to find the back of the net, securing only one point and sitting second to last in the standings.
📌 Nevertheless, there are signs of progress compared to the opening match. They were ruthlessly dismantled by Inter (0-5), appearing utterly helpless. Yet, in their second outing, they managed to snatch a draw against Fiorentina (0-0). Although the match was on home turf and Torino's quality of play was clearly inferior, keeping a clean sheet and earning a point provided a slight boost in confidence. For Baroni, this is a small but crucial step in acclimating his players to his system.

Latest news
Torino
📣 Torino head coach Marco Baroni, following the goalless draw with Fiorentina, praised his team's character and emphasized the importance of collective play: "This was a team that acted as a unit from start to finish. We created chances, but we need to improve our work with the ball. It's part of our growth process."
🚫 Perr Schuurs continues his recovery from a cruciate ligament tear and is expected to return by the end of September. Savvas Zanonis is dealing with a similar injury, though his recovery timeline remains unspecified.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Torino enters the third round with evident attacking issues. The arrival of a new coach with a bolder philosophy has yet to yield the desired results: the players are still adapting to his style, resulting in a lack of dangerous opportunities in the opening rounds, and a glaring zero in the goals column. This trend actually extends from last season, as the team failed to score in 5 of their last 6 official matches. Hence, we predict that Torino will not score.
🚩 Corner Prediction
In head-to-head encounters with Torino, Roma rarely focuses on set-pieces - in 9 of their last 10 Serie A matches, they have delivered no more than six corners. This is largely because the "Giallorossi" prefer to find paths to the opponent's goal through combinations rather than constant crosses and cutbacks. Moreover, Torino's defense features towering defenders. Therefore, it seems unlikely that we will see a significant increase in corners from the hosts in the upcoming clash. Our pick is Roma under 6.5 corners.
Editorial Prediction
Roma are the clear favorites according to the bookmakers, and we have no reason to disagree with them. The opening rounds have already shown that these teams are on completely different levels of development: under Gasperini, the "Wolves" display an organized, if not overly flashy, but effective game, while the "Bulls" under Baroni are just starting to adapt to new demands and are struggling to shake off their defensive style. The head-to-head history speaks for itself as well: the capital club have defeated Torino at home in 13 of their last 15 league matches. All these factors combined make betting on a Roma victory the most logical choice. We expect to see a 2-0 scoreline on the board.
