Torino are set to face Inter Milan with a renewed tactical approach, focusing on the midfield to create opportunities and surprise their opponents. Despite conceding eight goals in the first six matches of the season, manager Paolo Vanoli is not planning to radically change the team’s formation for the upcoming match at San Siro. Instead, he will stick with the 3-5-2 system that has made Torino one of the surprises of the early season.
The midfield will play a crucial role in Torino’s strategy. Calciomercato report that Vanoli has been working on vertical play and attacking spaces, emphasizing that this responsibility falls not only on the forwards but also on the wingers and midfielders. Samuele Ricci is expected to start as a right midfielder rather than in his usual regista role, while Ivan Ilic will operate on the left. Both players have had strong starts to the season, with Ilic already scoring against Atalanta.
Nikola Vlasic, who has recently recovered from illness, could be a key substitute. Vanoli sees Vlasic as an important player for Torino and intends to maximize his qualities by using him as an attacking midfielder.
Coming off two consecutive defeats, Torino faces a challenging task against Inter. However, Vanoli has encouraged his team to play with courage and personality. He acknowledges that negative moments are part of the game, especially for a team that has undergone significant changes.
