With Torino desperate to drag themselves out of the drop zone and Spezia that have found their form recently, this is a relegation showdown on a Saturday evening.
The Granata are still in the bottom three, even after going on a four-round unbeaten run, which was ended by Milan on Saturday. They faced the Rossoneri again three days later in the Coppa Italia, losing only on penalties after 120 minutes of goalless football, although there were many changes from both sides from that 2-0 Serie A Milan win. Toro held out capitulating only in a penalty shoot-out when Ciprian Tatarusanu parried the Tomas Rincon spot-kick.
Marco Giampaolo left the match frustrated with the final result but proud of his team's performance. “It’s a pity to play 120 minutes and emerge empty-handed, especially as we have another game coming up on Saturday. I don’t like this fixture list, as we’ll have a fifth match in 13 days, especially one of them being extra time. We have never snubbed the Coppa Italia, but we do need to keep an eye on the next Serie A match, which is very important for us.” Soualiho Meite was again not even on the bench and Giampaolo confirmed he was on his way to be a Milan player in a few days.
Torino (3-5-2): Sirigu; Izzo, Lyanco, Bremer; Singo, Lukic, Segre, Linetty, Rodriguez; Verdi, Belotti
Suspended: Rincon
Injured: Vojvoda
Spezia is in the Coppa on Tuesday against Roma, but first, hope to register a third consecutive Serie A victory after a surprise 2-1 win over Napoli and Sampdoria. Their coach Vincenzo Italiano was delighted by the recent streak and insisted he must use ‘carrot and stick’ with young players. The newly-promoted Serie A side won their first home game of the season against Sampdoria on Monday and has 17 points in just as many games. It was their second successive win after an away 2-1 victory at Napoli last week. “We played a great game in the first half, we prepared the game very well. The victory against Napoli boosted our self-esteem, we must enjoy this moment,” he added.
M'Bala Nzola has scored his ninth goal in 13 appearances and many clubs are interested in his services. Italiano would love to keep the in-form striker but urged the club to sell rather than buy players in January. “We had COVID cases and injured players and it was easier to handle such a deep squad. Now it’s even complicated to prepare training sometimes, we must sell some players and make the squad more functional."
Spezia (4-3-3): Provedel; Vignali, Terzi, Chabot, Marchizza; Estevez, Agoume, Pobega; Gyasi, Nzola, Farias
Suspended: None
Injured: Zoet, Mattiello

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
