Torino vs Juve: Derby della Mole with crucial hopes on the line

Torino and Juventus meet in a crucial Derby della Mole. The Granata are playing for local pride, while Juventus, two points behind Milan and Roma and level with Como, must win and hope for favourable results elsewhere in the race for a top-four finish. 

HEAD-TO-HEAD

The official head-to-head record between the two sides in Turin, on the Granata side, stands at 89 meetings: 24 Torino wins (the most recent 2-1, Serie A 2014/15), 28 draws (the most recent 1-1, last season's Serie A) and 37 Juventus victories (the most recent 0-1, Serie A 2022/23).

Torino's last derby win dates back to 26 April 2015, a 2-1 comeback victory with goals from Darmian and Quagliarella, after Pirlo had given Juventus the lead. In the subsequent 10 derbies: 3 draws and 7 Bianconeri wins.

DID YOU KNOW?

Torino are unbeaten at home since D'Aversa's arrival: 4 wins and 1 draw.

Torino have conceded 61 goals in total across 37 matchdays. In the last five seasons, only in 2020/21 did the Granata finish the campaign having conceded more: 69 on that occasion.

Torino are one point away from surpassing their final total of 44 points from last season.

In each of his last 6 Serie A seasons as a manager, Luciano Spalletti has always secured Champions League qualification. This would be the Juventus manager's first season ending without qualification to Europe's premier competition since 2008/09, when he was in charge of Roma.

Since the season following Juventus's last league title, the Bianconeri have accumulated a 100-point gap behind the leaders. Looking at individual seasons, only in 2023/24 did they register a larger points deficit behind the top side (23) than this season (18).

From the 2012/13 season onwards, Juventus have always finished in a position that guaranteed Champions League qualification for the following season. Only in 2023/24 were they unable to compete in Europe's top competition, due to a 10-point deduction that negated their 3rd-place finish (72 points, level with Inter).

Juventus are unbeaten in 5 consecutive away matches, with 3 wins and 2 draws. Their last defeat was a 2-5 loss on 17 February in Istanbul against Galatasaray.

The Bianconeri have kept a clean sheet for 385 minutes: the last goal they conceded was scored by Malen in the 65th minute of Roma 3-3 Juventus on 1 March.

COACHES and PLAYERS

This is the 5th official meeting between Roberto D'Aversa and Luciano Spalletti: the Juventus manager leads 3-1.

With 11 goals, Giovanni Simeone is Torino's top scorer this season. It is the fifth time the former Napoli striker has reached double figures in the Italian top flight — and the first time since 2021/22, when he scored 17.

Only Federico Dimarco (85) creates more chances than Kenan Yildiz (69) in the 2025/26 Serie A season.

Only Morten Frendrup (83) and Santiago Pierotti (79) win more tackles than Manuel Locatelli (76) in the 2025/26 Serie A season.
