AS Roma will be looking to bounce back to winning ways in the Serie A when they face Torino FC at the Stadio Olimpico on 31 October. 

Current Form

The Yellow and Reds suffered a 5-1 defeat to ACF Fiorentina away on 27 October and they are winless in their last three matches in the Italian top-flight.

Roma lost to Inter Milan in their home match in this competition and the defeat ended their two-match unbeaten run at the Stadio Olimpico.

Meanwhile, Torino secured a 1-0 win over Como 1907 at home on 25 October as they snapped their three-match winless run in Serie A.

However, the Maroons are winless in their last two away matches in this competition having registered two successive defeats as the visitors.

Team News

Roma will be without the suspended Mario Hermoso, while Matias Soule and Alexis Saelemaekers are both on the club's injury list. 

Torino, on the other hand, have Emirhan İlkhan, Zanos Savva, Perr Schuurs, Borna Sosa, Duván Zapata and Ivan Ilić on their injury list and the club has no suspension worries.

Quotes

“I was very upset. We played really well against Dynamo Kyiv three days ago. Today I saw very little focus, very little attention," Roma manager Ivan Juric said after his side's defeat to Fiorentina. 
 
"I saw lots of bad things. I didn't like our attitude, especially defensively. I decided to change things, both to shake them up and to give them a signal. But for a technical reason: I saw things I didn't like. Not just from those two [Bryan Cristante and Angelino], but from the whole team. 
 
"We'd conceded five goals in seven games, giving away very few chances, having a lot of the ball, and trying to improve in attack, which is where we needed to do better to pick up more points in these games. Tonight we got everything – the whole team did. There are no excuses. There's very little to say right now.”

Head-to-Head

Roma secured a 3-2 win over Torino in their last league meeting on 26 February at Stadio Olimpico. 
The Yellow and Reds are enjoying a six-match unbeaten run in the league against the Maroons having won four matches and drawn two.
