Milan vs Torino Preview
Milan
The previous season was good for Milan. Rossoneri once again qualified for the Champions League, finishing second in the standings behind Serie A winners Inter. However, the club made a significant change by saying farewell to Stefano Pioli following at the season’s end.
Paulo Fonseca has taken over as the new manager. So far, he has delivered promising results in preseason friendlies, securing victories against top teams like Barcelona, Man City, and Real Madrid. Moreover, the club demonstrated organized football in both defence and offense.
In terms of transfers and arrivals, talisman Olivier Girioud left Milan for Los Angeles FC. To fill the void, Milan signed Alvaro Morata from Atletico Madrid. Furthermore, they have brought in Strahinja Pavlović and Emerson, further strengthening their defense and overall team depth.
Torino
Ivan Jurić has turned Torino into a solid mid-table team in Serie A. Over the last three seasons, Granata have always finished in tenth or ninth place. Despite this stability, the team’s pragmatic playing style often drew criticism from fans who longed for more dynamic football.
This season marks a new chapter for Torino as Ivan Jurić departed, and Paolo Vanoli stepped in as the new head coach. So far in the pre-season friendlies, Vanoli’s side showed promise, losing only once against Cremonese, drawing with Lyon, and securing four victories, including a win against Cosenza in the Coppa Italia.
The squad saw some changes, with notable departures including Alessandro Buongiorno and Ricardo Rodriguez. At the same time, they signed Saúl Coco and Scottish forward Che Adams, who are expected to inject fresh energy into the team’s lineup.

Milan and Torino have regularly met in the Coppa Italia. All matches took place at San Siro, where the opponents had tense encounters and often played extra time, and in some instances, Torino emerged victorious.
The situation is different in Serie A. Rossoneri have won the past five H2H matches at San Siro. Moreover, under Paulo Fonseca, Milan have played five friendly games, in which they won four times and drew one against high-profile teams.
Fonseca will likely field a strong lineup, with new signing Alvaro Morata expected to start, while Rafael Leão will be eager to open his scoring account for the season. Our Milan vs Torino prediction suggests that the hosts will grab a convincing victory in this clash.
Milan vs Torino Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Over 2.5 Goals
- Odds: 1.89 (22Bet)
With Ivan Jurić in charge, Torino were an extremely defensive team that rarely scored more than two goals. However, after Jurić announced his departure three rounds before the end of the last season, the team’s offensive output increased drastically.
To provide stats, in the next nine matches, including friendlies, they scored and conceded a total of 25 goals (2.78 on average per game). As for Milan, they have netted 45 goals in their last ten fixtures (4.50 on average per game).
We assume both sides will be motivated to attack and produce a goal-fest in the upcoming fixture, making the best option to bet on over 2.5 goals.
