Torino are playing their 13th consecutive season in the Serie A, where they were mostly a mid-table team. This season, at the start, they looked like they could make a step forward and battle for Europe. However, after a good start, they now look more like a relegation candidate than the teams that fight for Europe. Right now, they won just once in the last 12 games and are in 11th place with 23 points from 21 matches - only four points away from the danger zone.
In recent decade, Cagliari were constantly among the weakest teams in the Serie A, even spending two seasons in Serie B. This season, they are only trying to survive once again. While they struggled for most of the season, there are some signs of improvement. In the last three games, they won seven points and moved to 14th place - two points away from the danger zone. After the Torino game, they will have a really challenging schedule as they will have four really tough games in the upcoming five matches (Lazio, Atalanta, Juventus, and Bologna).
Torino vs Cagliari pick: Cagliari to win or draw
Torino haven't won in the last five matches as they drew four times and lost once in that period. If we look further back, we can see they only had one game (1:0 vs. Empoli) in the last 12 and twice in the previous 17. That is only a 12% win rate during that 17-game stretch, and it is hard to expect all three points against anyone.
Cagliari, on the other hand, showed some signs of improvement after winning seven points in the last three games. They even secured a draw against AC Milan in Milano, so it is fair to expect at least one point against struggling Torino as well.
In the last h2h game in October, Cagliari won 3:2. Moreover, Torino only won once in the last five h2h games. Considering the trend in the h2h games and all the above, we believe that Cagliari to win or draw bet could be the safest option for this Serie A tie.
