Torino vs Sampdoria Prediction

The game at the weekend features two sides in near-abysmal form. Both Torino and Sampdoria have won just one of their last six league games and are well in the bottom half of the table.

Torino have fared better on their home turf and will want to take advantage of that when they face Sampdoria. The points should however ultimately be shared between both sides.

Prediction: Torino 1-1 Sampdoria
