Napoli vs Torino Preview and Prediction: A highly tense match.

Latest Napoli vs Torino team news

Juan Jesus is still unavailable, while former Torino defender Alessandro Buongiorno is not ruled out of the squad but is struggling to recover from a groin injury.

Therefore, Rafa Marin – who just had a rare start against Monza – is likely to continue partnering with key player Amir Rrahmani in the center of Napoli's defense.

With David Neres absent, Leonardo Spinazzola or Giacomo Raspadori will take on the left wing role, supporting main striker Romelu Lukaku – who has been directly involved in six goals in the last three home games.

On Torino's side, with captain Duvan Zapata sidelined by a long-term injury, Che Adams continues to lead the attack. After his goal midweek, Adams has equaled the record of nine goals in a single Serie A season, matching his compatriot and legend Denis Law.

Former Napoli player Eljif Elmas – who scored 14 goals in 143 appearances for the Partenopei – will also start. In addition, center-back Saul Coco returns after serving his suspension. However, Gvidas Gineitis will be suspended for one match.

Ivan Ilic and Borna Sosa both suffered minor injuries in the match against Udinese and may be absent, along with Nikola Vlasic and Valentino Lazaro.

Latest Napoli vs Torino football match prediction

Despite constant rumors about the future of coach Antonio Conte – with him reportedly having a falling out with president Aurelio de Laurentiis – Napoli is still fiercely competing with Inter in the Serie A title race.

One of Conte's key players has made a difference in recent weeks, helping the South London team overcome a slump that threatened their dream of winning a fourth Scudetto.

Just days after scoring a brace against Empoli, Scott McTominay went on to score the only goal in last week's victory over bottom-of-the-table Monza. Six of the Scottish star's nine Serie A goals this season have come when the score was 0-0.

One of those goals was the decisive one in the first leg against Torino back in December, and McTominay will be looking to further increase his goalscoring tally when he faces Torino again this weekend, with only five rounds remaining in the season.

When Inter unexpectedly conceded a last-minute goal against Bologna, the two teams are now level on points, and if they finish the season with the same number of points, a play-off match will be held to decide the championship.

Therefore, Napoli are under immense pressure to maintain their perfect winning record until the end of the season, and they are currently aiming for three consecutive wins in Serie A for the first time since January.

History is on Napoli's side as they are unbeaten in their last 12 home games against Torino; however, at this late stage of the season, surprises can always happen.

Torino also have a less than stellar recent record against Napoli: they have lost six of their last eight encounters, and failed to score in five of those matches.

However, Torino's current form is quite impressive: they have lost only one of their last eight Serie A matches, thus keeping alive their hopes of finishing the season in the top 10.

Che Adams – McTominay's national team teammate – scored the opening goal to help Torino beat Udinese 2-0 on Wednesday, extending their unbeaten home run into 2025.

As a result, coach Paolo Vanoli's team is currently ranked 10th in the league table, eight points behind 9th-placed AC Milan, meaning they no longer have a chance to qualify for European competitions and are not in danger of relegation.

In their last 10 away matches, Torino have only lost two and drawn six. With a relaxed mindset, they can certainly hope to spring a surprise at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium on Sunday night.
