Torino vs. Atalanta: both seek consistency

Torino and Atalanta go in search of three points to build on last week’s wins

After picking up their first wins last week, both Torino and Atalanta are looking to maintain momentum at the Olimpico Grande Torino. Marco Baroni’s Granata earned an impressive away win over Roma last time out, while Ivan Juric’s Nerazzurri thrashed Lecce 4-1. Is this the start of a push towards the top? This match could provide some answers.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

There have been 64 official matches between the two teams in Turin, with Torino winning 32, drawing 20, and Inter winning 12. In the last seven meetings in Turin, there has never been a draw between the two teams (Serie A matches only): Torino have won three and Atalanta four. The last draw was 1-1 on December 2, 2017 (goals from Nkoulou for the hosts and Ilicic for the visitors).

DID YOU KNOW?

On two occasions in Serie A—one win apiece—the matches between the two teams in Turin have seen unusual scores: 9-1 for Torino in 1941/42 (still Atalanta's heaviest defeat in Serie A in a single round) and 7-0 for Bergamo in 2019/20 (hat-trick by Ilicic, brace by Muriel, goals by Gosens and Zapata).

COACHES and PLAYERS

Marco Baroni and Ivan Juric have faced each other six times, with the Granata coach yet to win: the record stands at one draw and five wins for the Atalanta coach. Ivan Juric is the former player of the day at the Olimpico Grande Torino: for him in Granata colors, the record is 44 wins, 37 draws, and 41 losses in 122 official matches from 2021/22 to 2023/24. Giovanni Simeone scored his first official goal in the 2025 calendar year. His previous goal was in Lazio vs. Napoli on December 5, 2024, in the Coppa Italia; in Serie A, he had not scored since August 25, 2024, in Napoli vs. Bologna. Nicola Zalewski scored his fourth goal in Serie A against Lecce. His last goal was scored against Torino (at the Olimpico) on May 11, 2025, while playing for Inter.
