Match preview
Torino host AC Milan at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino in their opening fixtures of the Serie A campaign. The Granata enter the match following a steady run in pre-season and cup fixtures, claiming 1-0 victories against Carrarese, Burnley, and Alcione, alongside a 1-1 draw with Avellino and a 0-1 loss to Cittadella.
AC Milan arrive in Turin grappling with substantial squad limitations. The Rossoneri will be without key attacking and defensive options, with R. Leao, C. Pulisic, and S. Gimenez sidelined through injury, while C. Nkunku, Y. Fofana, and F. Tomori are listed as inactive. Milan's recent matches featured mixed outcomes, including a 4-2 win against Manchester United, a 0-3 defeat to Chelsea, and a 1-1 draw with Inter.
Historically, this fixture has been closely contested. Over the last 10 head-to-head meetings, both sides have won 4 matches each alongside 2 draws. However, at home, Torino have historically held the upper hand, recording 3 victories and 1 draw in their last 5 encounters hosting AC Milan.
