Napoli vs Torino Prediction: Conte’s crew set for high-scoring success

Injuries have derailed Napoli's season in recent months, but they remain third in Serie A and highly-strung manager Antonio Conte will be demanding a positive display from his players when they host Torino on Friday evening.

Napoli snapped a three-game winless run with last Saturday's 2-1 success at bottom club Verona and they will be expecting to see off Torino, who are only six points clear of the relegation places. Read on for my Napoli vs Torino predictions.

Team News

Napoli have been given a boost with Frank Anguissa, Scott McTominay and Kevin De Bruyne all back in full training, although this match may come too soon for that trio.

David Neres, Amir Rrahmani and captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo are confirmed absentees and Stanislav Lobotka is an injury doubt with a muscle injury.

Torino manager Roberto D'Aversa has a near full-strength squad to choose from, with Zakaria Aboukhlal's the only injury concern.

Emirhan Ilkhan has served his suspension and Tino Anjorin and Che Adams are back in contention after spells on the sidelines.

Napoli vs Torino Odds

Napoli are 1/2 to build on their recent win at Verona and enhance their top-four aspirations in Serie A, while Torino are 6/1 to spring the surprise and the draw is available at 11/4.

Recent meetings between this pair have been cagey, with the last four rivalries going under 2.5 goals, and it is 8/11 about a repeat scenario.

Both teams to score has been a winning bet in Napoli’s last seven matches and that is a 5/4 chance.

Napoli to win & both teams to score @ 3/1

A 96th-minute winner from Romelu Lukaku spared Napoli's blushes on last weekend's trip to Serie A basement boys Verona and they may have to work hard for their rewards against Torino.

Napoli will be desperate to have De Bruyne, McTominay and Anguissa back dictating matters in midfield as soon as possible and their absences have led to some indifferent performances.

Conte's men remain well-versed in forward areas and, having seen both teams score in eight of their last nine matches, it could be a case of needing to outscore the opposition.

Torino enjoyed a 2-0 win over Lazio last time out and they have failed to score in only one of their last six matches, which includes a consolation strike in defeat at Inter.

That said, the visitors have picked up only one point from their last four away games and should be there for the taking.

Romelu Lukaku last goalscorer @ 7/2

Lukaku is likely to be on the bench behind Rasmus Hojlund, having only recently returned from long-term injury, but his 18-minute cameo against Verona last weekend featured an injury-time winner. 

The Belgium international still has plenty to offer and he has racked up five goals and three assists in eight league outings against Torino, suggesting he could enjoy some late success
