This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 2 draws each.
Both Marko Arnautović and Mattias Svanberg have been the hottest scorers for Bologna in the last 5 each having scored 2 goals each. Gleison Bremer and Josip Brekalo are the top scorers for Torino in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
