Inter Team News
Inter is back in contention, as they moved back in top four with a hard-fought 2-3 win at Udinese, that they spiced up with a 4-0 win over Crvena Zvezda in the Champions League. The short slump that culminated with a defeat to AC Milan could be forgotten if Inter gets another win here.
Torino Team News
Torino just had an awful week after starting the season well, as they lost at home to Empoli in the cup, and then lost at home to Lazio in the league. They were expecting so much more, as they were undefeated thus far and were in the top four in the league. Inter now overtook them and Torino is fifth.
The team seems to be performing better than in the last season, or at least that was the case in the early season. This side is now definitely playing more open football with more goals involved on both ends.
Probable Lineups
Inter (3-5-2): Sommer - Pavard, Acerbi, Bastoni -Darmian, Frattesi, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco - Thuram, Lautaro. Coach S.Inzaghi.
Torino (3-5-2): Milinkovic-Savic - Walukiewicz, Coco, Masina - Pedersen, Ricci, Tameze, Ilic, Lazaro - Zapata, Adams. Coach Vanoli.
The Betting Market
As everyone would expect, Inter is a huge favourite at 1.33. This is actually not a very profitable thing to do, bet on Inter in every game, because the odds are too short. Unless you really think this is one of the games that Inter will win confidently.
Over 2.5 Goals is priced at 1.66 while the Both Teams To Score: NO is the favoured option at 1.70 as the bookmakers think Torino won't score.
The Betting Verdict
Inter will win this one, most likely, but their defence isn't shatter-proof. They concede in the slim majority of their matches, and the chances of conceding actually rise when the opponent is deemed too weak. That's why we think Torino will likely find the net.
But we won't bet on BTTS but will take an easy way out and bet on Over 2.5 Goals, as we can win with 2-1 but also with 3-0.
