Venezia – Torino

Venezia host a struggling Torino at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo, each side desperate for points as the season stalls. The home side sit bottom of the table in 20th place, still winless after four defeats and a meagre –11 goal difference, while Torino sit just above the relegation zone in 14th with three points from a solitary victory and a –3 goal difference. Both clubs have scored only four goals so far, but Venezia have conceded eleven, twice as many as the visitors, highlighting a defensive frailty that could be exploited. Historically the two have met sparingly, and with Torino’s lone win this campaign their recent head‑to‑head edge may prove decisive. A positive result for either side could dramatically reshape the lower half of the table as the race for survival tightens.
