Historically, Napoli has had a strong record against Torino, remaining unbeaten in 19 of their last 20 encounters in Serie A (with 14 wins and 5 draws), scoring a total of 40 goals, which averages out to exactly two per game. The only victory for Torino during this stretch occurred on January 7, 2024, when they won 3-0 at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino. Torino is the team against which Napoli has drawn the most matches in Serie A history, recording 56 draws out of 142 previous encounters, complemented by 53 wins for the Neapolitans and 33 for Torino. However, among the last nine league matches, there has been only one draw (1-1 on March 8, 2024).
Napoli has shown significant dominance in recent away matches against Torino, winning eight out of their last ten Serie A away matches (with one draw and one loss), scoring 21 goals during this stretch, and keeping a clean sheet in five of their last six away games against Torino in the league.
On the other hand, Torino has faced challenges this season, conceding at least 13 goals in their first six matches, a feat they have only repeated twice in their Serie A history, in the 2020/21 season (16 goals) and 1958/59 (13 goals). The team has managed to win only one of their last eleven league games (with three draws and seven losses), failing to score in seven of them. Remarkably, Torino has not found the back of the net in their last four home league matches, a situation unprecedented in their Serie A history, as they have never gone five consecutive home games without scoring.
Conversely, Napoli has the potential to achieve six wins in their first seven league matches for the seventh time in club history, with their last successful run occurring in the 2021/22 season, a scenario in which they finished the league in one of the top three positions. However, they arrive at this match with pressure, as they have suffered two consecutive away defeats in all competitions (against Manchester City in the Champions League and AC Milan in Serie A). The last time Napoli endured such a negative streak in away official matches was between November 2023 and January 2024, under coach Walter Mazzarri.
Thus, as the teams prepare to face each other, fans can expect a lively match filled with potential history and pivotal moments in the league.
