Torino will aim to disrupt another title contender when they host Atalanta at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino on matchday two of Italy's Serie A this Sunday.
Torino vs Atalanta Betting Tips : OVER 2.5
Despite entering the Serie A opening weekend as underdogs, Torino showed their teeth and were just minutes away from claiming a full three points, but all their hard work was undone in the final moments as they squandered a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with AC Milan at San Siro.
Matchday two also sees them as the underdogs, but the Bulls are determined to defy the odds again, especially since they were incredibly tough on their own turf last season, finishing only two out of 17 home matches in defeat and conceding just nine goals, making them the only team to allow a singe-digit number of goals at home.
However, Torino's defensive department will be severely tested in Sunday's contest as they host an Atalanta side that has frequently troubled their backline in recent years, having breached it at least twice in all but one of the last 10 head-to-heads.
After their 0-2 loss to Real Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup final held in Warsaw in mid-August, Gasperini’s squad quickly bounced back with a lightning-fast start to the Serie A season, blasting Lecce 4-0 away and immediately putting all other teams in their rearview mirror.
As they kick off the second week of Serie A, the Bergamasque club firmly hopes to maintain their spot at the top of the table, knowing their recent visits to Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino have been highly successful, having defeated Torino in four of the last five clashes at this venue and netting 14 goals in the process.
This week's test is certainly tougher than the last time out, but a motivated Atalanta has all the tools needed to leave Piedmont with the full spoils, while tradition suggests that the fans at Olimpico Grande will be treated to lively, goal-filled football, as seen in the last ten encounters which all featured at least three goals each, totaling 48.

Torino team news
Due to a knee operation, Perr Schuurs will be unavailable for at least three more months, meaning summer signing Saul Coco will step in and attempt to prove to the coach that he is ready to be a regular part of the defensive trio.
Manager Paolo Vanoli will also be without Nikola Vlasic, who has been struggling with a muscle injury since Euro 2024, but he can take solace in having Duvan Zapata and Antonio Sanabria available in attack.
