Frosinone-Torino is a match valid for the 15th day of Serie A and is played Sunday at 12:30 p.m.: lineups, predictions, TV and streaming.
Frosinone to continue to impress, Torino to give continuity to the bombastic success with Atalanta and get closer to the Europa zone. There is no shortage of points of interest in the Sunday lunch match of the 15th day between the Giallazzurri and Granata, separated by just one point in the standings.
Eusebio Di Francesco’s Ciociari are the big surprise of this league and with a handful of games to go are closer to seventh place (which could mean Conference League qualification at the end of the season) than to the relegation zone, perfectly in line with what is the season’s goal: to achieve salvation in the top flight for the first time after the fleeting experiences of past years. The bulk of Frosinone’s points have been won at home: the “Stirpe” stadium has so far proved to be a veritable fortress, conquered only by Italian champions Napoli on the first day. Then practically only victories for the Giallazzurri, with the exception of the draw with Fiorentina. Di Francesco’s team is fresh from a 3-1 defeat to AC Milan at the San Siro, where beyond the final result interesting things were seen.
On the other hand, Ivan Juric’s Torino, which on Monday swept away “maestro” Gasperini’s Atalanta 3-0 thanks in part to a brace scored by the match’s great ex Duvan Zapata, got right back up. The Granata are now looking for that continuity that has always been lacking, although their last away success dates back to late October.
Frosinone-Torino: latest lineup news
Di Francesco is on the hunt for alternatives in the middle: he has to make up for Barrenechea’s disqualification and the favorite to take the place of the Juventus nursery product is Garritano. Mazzitelli meanwhile joins the long list of unavailable players, which also includes Harroui, Lirola and Marchizza. Up front Cheddira is favored in the duel with Cuni.
On the other side, Juric will confirm Tameze in the defensive trio with Buongiorno and Rodriguez. The is also short in midfield, where there will be no disqualified Linetty. On the other hand, we will see Ricci back from the 1′: the former Empoli man is now re-established.
The Prediction
Frosinone and Torino come face to face again a month after the Coppa Italia challenge in which the ciociari got the better of it 2-1 in extra time. It again promises to be a more open match than expected, with the granata wanting to take advantage of the momentum from the rounded victory over Atalanta. Rarely at the “Stirpe” do we see a few goals, which, above all, have never been lacking in the precedents in the top flight between these two teams. Both, again, should score at least one goal on each side.
The probable lineups of Frosinone-Torino
