Chievo vs Torino Betting Tips

The magical run for Chievo was ended at the weekend in defeat by Inter Milan, but this team is still sixth in the Serie A table and it was their first loss in four games this season. The loss against Inter wasn’t a demolition, it was more of a blunting actually.

They’ve got a chance to jump straight back into action against a strong opponent on Wednesday night when they welcome Torino into town. It’ll be interesting to see whether they are shut out in the same way by another side that sets itself to be a tough defence.

Torino took the place of Chievo in second position and have enjoyed a quieter strong start to the season winning three and drawing one of their opening games. They beat Fiorentina in Week 2 and beat Sampdoria at the weekend, so it’s not as if they’ve faced a terrible schedule.

They’ve got a strong, fast and physical midfield, where they disrupt attacking players and control possession. This is definitely not a team to under-estimate.

Three Reasons for Betting Tips

1. Midfield domination

Torino don’t overstretch themselves, but they have a naturally dominant midfield, whomever they plug the hole with. We expect them to control this match-up.

2. Chievo come down to earth

They were running on early momentum and we now expect a little bit of a drop off, especially with the games being packed tightly together.

3. Strong straight forward odds

The odds on a win sit at 8/5, which represents a good money making opportunity on a strong Torino team that could push into the top six or seven in Serie A this season.
