Gian Piero Gasperini’s Roma have won their first three league matches and conceded only once across those games. Their Serie A run includes a 2-1 victory over Atalanta, a 4-0 win at Fiorentina and another 4-0 success against Lecce.
Roma were held 1-1 by Fenerbahçe in their Champions League opener, the club’s first match in the competition for seven years. Bryan Cristante gave the Italian side a first-half lead in Istanbul before Brown equalised early after the interval.
The draw maintained Roma’s positive sequence, although Koné emerged from the match with an injury and will not be available in Turin. Marten de Roon is expected to move into midfield, while Paulo Dybala and Donyell Malen are projected to feature in attack.
Mile Svilar is set to start in goal for Roma. No suspensions have been listed for the league leaders.
Torino seeking back-to-back league wins
Torino enter the fixture 13th but gained a useful 2-1 away win over Fiorentina in their latest Serie A match. Ignazio Abate’s team have nevertheless lost two of their previous three league fixtures and were eliminated from the Coppa Italia by Monza.
Across their last five matches in all competitions, Torino have recorded two wins, one draw and two defeats, scoring five times and conceding four. They beat Carrarese 1-0 in the cup, while AC Milan, Sassuolo and Monza each defeated them by a single-goal margin.
Abate must prepare without Casadei, Pellegri and Israel because of injury. Lucas Perri is expected in goal, with Eray Cömert, Saúl Coco and Pietro Comuzzo among the likely defenders, while Che Adams is projected to lead the line.
Roma won the most recent meeting, taking a 2-0 Serie A victory in Turin in January 2026. Over the last five encounters, Roma have three wins to Torino’s one, with one draw; the Granata’s success came in a 1-0 away victory in September 2025.
The five-match head-to-head record has produced nine Roma goals and six for Torino. Roma have not lost a competitive fixture since their 2-2 pre-season draw with Borussia Dortmund, and their defensive record in the league gives them a firm platform heading into Monday’s game.
