AC Milan vs Torino Predictions

• Under 2.5 goals have been scored in eight of the last 10 games to feature Torino in all competitions.
• AC Milan have failed to score in four of their last six matches – a run which began with an extra-time Coppa Italia defeat against Torino.
• Only Napoli, Juventus, Lazio and Roma have conceded fewer than the 22 goals shipped by Torino in Serie A this season.
• However, the visitors have only scored 22 goals, the seventh-worst return in the league.

Rossoneri collapse continues against rivals

AC Milan’s extraordinary collapse continued with a meek 1-0 derby defeat against Inter Milan last time out, with the Rossoneri failing to record a shot on target following Stefano Pioli’s decision to change formation. The Scudetto holders have now lost four games in a row and gone without a win in seven across all competitions, leaving them a point outside the top four just weeks after they looked set to push Serie A leaders Napoli. Things don’t get much easier on Friday, meanwhile, with the visit of bogey side Torino.

Milan have failed to win any of their last three games against Il Toro, who won October’s return fixture 2-1 before eliminating the Rossoneri from the Coppa Italia in extra time last month. Ivan Juric’s men are just one place behind Milan – albeit with an eight-point gap, having only lost one of their last eight league games. Eight of Torino’s last 10 matches have contained under 2.5 goals, with the solid visitors possessing the league’s fifth-best defensive record with just 22 goals conceded.

Milan’s season is unravelling, with Pioli’s men losing their attacking verve as well as their usual defensive solidity. Indeed, the Rossoneri have failed to net in four of their last six games, having only done so four times in their first 22 matches this term. The champions’ run of five league games without winning is their worst since 2018, and they may struggle to break down a visiting side which stood firm to triumph with 10 men on this ground just a month ago.

Tense affair likely at San Siro

With Milan’s dire run enough to put anyone off backing them, punters are advised to oppose over 2.5 goals to be scored in Friday’s game, with Torino capable of keeping things tight once again – six of the last eight head-to-head meetings between the teams have contained fewer than three goals.

Meanwhile, a 1-1 draw could represent a decent value correct score prediction, with Milan desperately lacking confidence and the visitors often being a thorn in their side.
