Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Torino, 12th position with 8 points and a positive goal difference of +1
Genoa, 18th position with 6 points and a negative goal difference of -6
Torino win the Serie A Week 9 game defeating Genoa on Friday 22 October 2021 at the Olimpico di Torino in Turin, Italy. Motivation is high for Torino having lost their last two games against Juventus and Napoli, without scoring. This victory is a redemption and added boost for Torino having now a +5 points lead over Genoa. Problem is for Genoa remaining in the relegation zone. Torino have not lost three games in a row in the competition since December 2020 and there are three goalless games in Serie A since November 2014.
✅ Torino are unbeaten in their last eight league games against Genoa: six wins, two draws. From 2012/13 onwards, Torino have never lost at home to Genoa in Serie A (5V, 4N): during the period, among the teams played at least five times at home, the rossoblù team is the only one against which the grenade they never lost. Genoa have achieved success in the first eight games of this championship (3N, 4P): in the first nine Serie A games of the season, in the era of three points per victory, the rossoblù have won only one game on only two occasions, in the 2017/18 and in 2020/21. Genoa have won three of their last six Serie A away games (1N, 2P), as many away wins as those obtained in the previous 18 (5N, 10P).
Torino opening the score in the 14th minute. It is Antonio Sanabria to defeat Genoa goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu with a headed shot to the center. The assist is by Cristian Ansaldi. Nine of Sanabria’s last 10 #SerieA goals have been scored in home games, including all of the last six.
