Roma head to Turin in pursuit of a Champions spot

Roma visit Torino with the aim of finishing in the top four

The 2024/25 Serie A Enilive season is also coming to an end for Torino and Roma, who are set to meet at the Olimpico Grande Torino. The Granata want to put consecutive defeats behind them and finish on a high in front of their fans. Roma, meanwhile, need to win and hope Juve slip up in order to finish fourth.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

Torino have won just one of their last 10 games against Roma in Serie A (D2 L7), losing their last two; the Granata have not suffered three defeats in a row against the Giallorossi in the competition since a run of five between 2017 and 2019. Roma have won both matches against Torino played on matchday 38 in Serie A, winning 3-2 at home in May 2009 and 3-0 away in May 2022. Roma have won five of their last seven away games against Torino in Serie A (D1 L1), as many as their previous 19 away games against the Granata in the competition beforehand (W5 D10 L4).

DID YOU KNOW?

Torino have suffered two consecutive defeats (0-2 vs Inter and 0-1 vs Lecce). Indeed, under Paolo Vanoli's management, they have already suffered three consecutive defeats in Serie A twice, most recently between October and November 2024 against Roma, Fiorentina and Juventus, also failing to score in those three games. Should Juventus fail to win and Roma win on the final day, the Giallorossi would close out the Serie A season by qualifying for the Champions League for the first time since 2017/18, which was also the last time they finished above 5th in the top-flight (3rd). Roma have obtained 46 of their current 66 points in Serie A this season in 2025; this calendar year, only Barcelona (47) have earned more points in the big-five European leagues than Roma (Bayern Munich also 46). Roma have scored eight goals from corners in Serie A this season (including one in the previous matchday, via Gianluca Mancini against Milan), with only Inter (12) scoring more (Parma and Udinese also 8).

PLAYERS

Ché Adams, who has scored nine goals in Serie A in 2024/25 for Torino, could reach double figures for goals in a season in the big-five European leagues for the first time in his career; however, only two of the Scotsman's nine goals this term have come against teams currently in the top half of the table (vs Atalanta and Lazio in August and September). With his goal in the last round against Milan, Bryan Cristante equalled his highest scoring tally in a Serie A season with Roma (4 goals, level with 2018/19, his first season with the Giallorossi); he has only scored more in a single campaign in the competition with Atalanta in 2017/18 (9 goals). Since the beginning of February - since when he has played 14 of Roma's 15 Serie A games, all as a starter - Matías Soulé has created the most big chances for his teammates (8) and attempted the most dribbles (59) in the competition
