Torino registered a crushing victory in the last round. The Bulls faced Verona and went ahead already in the 10th minute. In that sequence, the one-on-one opportunity was clinically converted by Simeone. Pressure on the opponent's goal continued throughout the first half. The Mastiffs managed to level the score only after the break, but late in the match they conceded two more. A deserved victory for Marco Baroni's charges. The obvious positive takeaway is that the Turinese were able to keep their goal clean. The Bulls have conceded 28 goals in 18 rounds, higher only than their current rivals Udinese (29). In the previous round the Garnets unexpectedly lost to Cagliari. Vlasic put his team ahead, but Prati's and Kilicsoy's goals deprived the Turin side of points. Torino is playing very inconsistently. Udinese narrowly lost to Como on Saturday. The Friulians conceded an early goal and had a lackluster first half. After the break the team recovered and began creating chances. Vlasic scored, but unfortunately offside. In the previous round Runjaic's side took a point from Lazio. Udinese had every chance to win, but the result was only a comeback draw. Earlier there was a defeat to Fiorentina and a narrow win over Napoli. In the previous season the clubs met twice. At Stadio Friuli a productive 2-2 draw was recorded. The Bianconeri led by two goals but squandered the lead in the second half. The second-leg match ended with a 2-0 win for the Bulls. At Turin's Olimpico the Garnets earned three wins in nine matches. This happened in matches against Napoli (1-0), Genoa (2-1) and Cremonese (1-0). Meanwhile the Bulls shared points with relegation strugglers Pisa (2-2) and Fiorentina (0-0), and also lost to Cagliari (1-2). The Friulians on the road lost to Como, Juventus, Roma, Sassuolo and Fiorentina. The defeat of the Lilies was caused by an early red card. Obviously you can't say that the Zebras play poorly away. Especially considering wins over Inter, Pisa and Parma, as well as a draw with Cremonese. Under Kosta Runjaic, Udinese are no weaker than their rivals. Udinese can and should collect points in Turin.
