Torino vs. Inter Prediction, Match Preview and Betting Tips, 11 May 2025

As we approach the 36th matchday of Serie A, Torino hosts Inter at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino on 11 May 2025 at 17:00. Inter, currently sitting second in the league, is hot on the heels of Napoli, trailing by just three points. With only three matches to go, every point is crucial for Simone Inzaghi’s men.

Torino, under Paolo Vanoli, find themselves in no-man’s land in 11th position. Their recent form has been inconsistent, evident from a lacklustre DLWLD record. Injuries have not been kind to them either, losing key players like Perr Schuurs and Duvan Zapata for the season.

Inter comes into this match on a high after a thrilling extra-time victory over Barcelona in the Champions League. They’ve been consistent in Serie A, maintaining a strong 74-point tally and have secured victories in their last five matches against Torino.

Federico La Penna will officiate, and his penchant for penalties (five in 12 matches) could be pivotal. Given all factors, Inter is the bookmaker’s favourite to win, with odds of 1.57.

Our recommended bet is an Inter victory, as they are riding a wave of momentum and have much more at stake. Expect a fiercely contested game with Inter likely securing the three points.

Torino Team Analysis

Torino Recent Performance

Home team	Away team	Date	Competition	Result
Torino	Venezia	2025-05-02	Serie A	1-1 (Draw)
Napoli	Torino	2025-04-27	Serie A	2-0 (Loss)
Torino	Udinese	2025-04-23	Serie A	2-0 (Win)
Como	Torino	2025-04-13	Serie A	1-0 (Loss)
Torino	Verona	2025-04-06	Serie A	1-1 (Draw)

Torino’s recent form shows a mixed bag with a sequence of Draw, Loss, Win, Loss, and Draw (DLWLD). They managed to secure a 2-0 win against Udinese but have struggled to find consistency, averaging just 0.80 goals per game in their last five matches. Despite their mid-table standing and limited clean sheets, only one in the last five games, Torino has shown moments of resilience.

Crucially, they have struggled to find the back of the net consistently, which puts them at a disadvantage against a high-flying Inter side. Their matches often feature less than 2.5 goals, aligning with the broader season trend.

Torino Key Players

Torino is relying heavily on their top scorer, Che Adams, who has netted 9 goals this season. He will be essential in breaching Inter’s strong defense. Another player to watch is Nikola Vlašić, who brings creativity and drive from midfield. The attacking midfielder will need to thread the needle and find Adams in scoring positions to unlock Inter’s defense.

Guillermo Maripán and Sebastian Walukiewicz must be at their best to contain Inter’s forward line, particularly Marcus Thuram, who has been in fine form with 14 goals.

Expected lineup for Torino:

• Goalkeeper: Vanja Milinkovic-Savic
• Defenders: Sebastian Walukiewicz, Saul Coco, Guillermo Maripán, Cristiano Biraghi
• Midfielders: Gvidas Gineitis, Cesare Casadei, Valentino Lazaro, Nikola Vlašić, Elif Elmas
• Forward: Che Adams

Torino Suspensions & Injuries

Torino will be missing several key players due to injuries, which could significantly impact their performance against Inter. Here’s the latest injury update:

Player	Injury	Expected return
Perr Schuurs	Cruciate ligament injury	Late May 2025
Duvan Zapata	Cruciate ligament injury	Out for season
Alieu Njie	Broken leg	Early July 2025
Amine Salama	Physical discomfort	Late May 2025
Samuele Ricci	Knee injury	Late May 2025
Borna Sosa	Physical discomfort	Doubtful

These absences will test Torino’s squad depth, particularly in the attacking department where Duvan Zapata’s absence will be deeply felt. Che Adams will need to step up even more in his absence, and the reliance on young talents like Gvidas Gineitis will be key.
Paolo Vanoli will have to reshuffle his lineup to fill these gaps, which could disrupt the team’s rhythm and cohesion against a formidable Inter side.

Torino Tactics and Formation

Torino Tactical Breakdown:

• Formation: 4-2-3-1
• Key Forward: Che Adams (9 goals this season)
• Midfield Setup:
  • Right defensive midfielder: Gvidas Gineitis
  • Left defensive midfielder: Cesare Casadei
  • Right wing: Valentino Lazaro
  • Attacking midfielder: Nikola Vlašić
  • Left wing: Elif Elmas
• Defensive Line:
  • Right back: Sebastian Walukiewicz
  • Right center back: Saul Coco
  • Left center back: Guillermo Maripán
  • Left back: Cristiano Biraghi

Torino heavily relies on a structured defense with disciplined midfield support. Their key strategy revolves around maintaining a robust midfield to control the tempo and create openings, specifically capitalizing on their strength in the 61-75-minute interval, where they’ve scored a majority of their goals. Paolo Vanoli will need to ensure his squad stays compact defensively and exploits counter-attacks, leveraging Adams’ pace and Vlašić’s playmaking abilities.

Recent Form: WWDLL

Inter have demonstrated their attacking capabilities by averaging 1.60 goals scored in their last 5 matches. Despite their offensive prowess, they’ve managed just 1 clean sheet in the same period, highlighting areas for defensive improvement.

Overall, Inter’s mixed results indicate a strong but slightly inconsistent run, which they will aim to stabilize against Torino.

Inter Key Players

Inter are stacked with talent, and their key players will be crucial against Torino. Up front, their top scorer Marcus Thuram has netted 14 goals this season, making him a constant threat to any defense. Creative force Hakan Çalhanoğlu in the midfield, known for his vision and passing, will aim to control the game alongside Nicolò Barella and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who add both defensive grit and attacking flair. Expect key battles, especially with Thuram up against Torino’s goalkeeper Vanja Milinković-Savić and Guillermo Maripán in defense.

Expected lineup for Inter:

• Goalkeeper: Yann Sommer
• Defenders: Yann Aurel Bisseck, Stefan de Vrij, Alessandro Bastoni
• Midfielders: Matteo Darmian, Nicolò Barella, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Federico Dimarco
• Forwards: Joaquín Correa, Marko Arnautović

Inter Suspensions & Injuries

Inter have a few players sidelined, which could impact their squad depth and strategies. Here’s the current injury situation:

Player	Injury	Expected return
Valentin Carboni	Cruciate ligament injury	Late June 2025
Benjamin Pavard	Ankle injury	Doubtful

These injuries are expected to strain Inter’s defensive options, particularly with Pavard being a doubt. Carboni’s long-term absence limits rotation in the defensive line. Inter will need their key players to maintain fitness, especially given their recent busy schedule, to secure the necessary points in this crucial Serie A match against Torino.

• Defensive Setup: Yann Aurel Bisseck, Stefan de Vrij, Alessandro Bastoni

• Inter’s midfield setup, featuring seasoned playmakers like Çalhanoğlu and Mkhitaryan, will look to control the pace and create opportunities.
• The wing-backs, Darmian and Dimarco, provide width and support both offensively and defensively.
• Inter enjoy an attacking game, scoring in 89% of their matches this season and will likely look to capitalize on Torino’s defensive vulnerabilities.
