The upcoming Serie A clash between Torino and Bologna at Olimpico Grande Torino promises to be a challenging encounter, with both teams battling significant injury and suspension setbacks.
Torino will be without centre-back Saul Coco, who is suspended after accumulating his fifth yellow card in the recent match against Empoli. The defensive lineup will be further weakened by injuries to key players Duvan Zapata, Emirhan Ilkhan, and Perr Schuurs, all sidelined with knee problems.
Despite these challenges, Torino’s forward C Adams remains a potent threat. All four of his Serie A goals this season have come after the half-time break, with three scored as a substitute. His late-game impact could prove crucial in determining the match’s outcome.
Bologna enter the match with their own injury concerns. While the team has no suspended players, doubts remain over Juan Miranda and Michel Aebischer, who are still being assessed for muscle-related issues. The visitors will definitely be without Nicolo Cambiaghi, Oussama El Azzouzi (both with knee injuries), Dan Ndoye (ankle), and Riccardo Orsolini (muscle strain).
One bright spot for Bologna is Jens Odgaard, who has already matched his goal tally from the previous season by scoring three times. His recent goal against Fiorentina demonstrates his growing confidence, and he’ll be looking to continue his scoring form in Turin.
Torino (3-5-2): Milinkovic-Savic; Walukiewicz, Maripan, Masina; Pedersen, Ricci, Linetty, Ginetis, Sosa; Adams, Sanabria
Bologna (4-2-3-1): Skorupski; De Silvestri, Beukema, Lucumi, Holm; Freuler, Pobega; Odgaard, Ferguson, Dominguez; Castro
