AS Roma vs Torino prediction 13.01.2026 | Coppa Italia

For the past seven seasons, AS Roma have been constantly between fifth and seventh place. While they secured Europe and made deep runs, their goal is undoubtedly to return to the top four spots and secure Champions League for the first time since the 2018/19 season. This season seems like a perfect opportunity to do that. At this moment, they are in third place - three points away from the top spot, but with two games played more. Besides their excellent Serie A campaign, the Wolves have also easily secured the Europa League knockout phase. So, an overall good season thus far.

Coach Gian Piero Gasperini has had major problems with absences in recent matches, with nine players missing the previous game. And in the last game, their striker, Evan Ferguson, also suffered an injury and is questionable for the upcoming match. On the positive side, Evan Ndicka will most likely return on time from AFCON and should be available.

Torino are playing their 14th consecutive season in the Italian top-flight division, where they have mostly been a mid-table team. This season, the popular Il Toro is around its usual position, sitting in 12th place with 23 points from 20 matches. Throughout the season, we mostly saw them consistently beating bad teams, but also often losing to the top ones. So, it will be interesting whether they can surprise everyone and eliminate in-form AS Roma. In the Coppa Italia, Torino have already come through two rounds, eliminating Modena and fellow Serie A side Pisa.

After a 2:0 loss vs Atalanta, coach Marco Baroni spoke to the media. He said they did well in the second half and deserved to score at least one goal. The coach added they have to be more consistent, but is confident they can improve. For the upcoming game, coach Marco Baroni will have no new absences, but the ones who missed the previous matches should remain sidelined - Schuurs, Pedersen, Ilic, and Masina.
