Napoli are currently the side with the best form in Italy, and this they will be looking to stretch on when they host Torino in Round 8 of the Serie A. Napoli go to this game leading the standings on 21 points while Torino are 11th with eight points. In their last game, right ahead of the international break, Napoli rose from behind to beat Fiorentina 2-1 for their seventh win in seven Serie A matches. They have the best defensive record so far in the league, having conceded just three goals and in their last four league games, they have three clean sheets. Their only loss this season was in Europa League, and they have no loss in 16 straight league matches. In all their seven league matches this season, Napoli have scored two or more goals and Nigeria international Victor Osimhem has been crucial here, with four league goals in the last five games. In their last 12 meetings with Torino, Napoli are unbeaten.

Torino on the other hand, head to this game straight from a 1-0 loss to Juventus in the Turin derby. That was their third straight winless outing and much of their woes in their recent matches have been down to poor numbers in attack. Torino are the joint lowest scorers among the teams in the top 13 of the Serie A standings after seven rounds of matches. They have scored more than a goal in just one of their eight matches this season. Torino have registered two wins in 12 matches in the league and have just one win in the last seven away in Serie A. In 10 away matches in the league, they’ve managed more than a goal in just one game and head to head with Napoli, they have just one win in 18 meetings.
