Torino host in-form Roma in Serie A matchday four test
Torino face AS Roma at the Stadio Olimpico di Torino on matchday four of Serie A, with the visitors arriving unbeaten in their last five league outings.
Roma's recent sequence of three wins and two draws contrasts with Torino's mixed run of two wins and three defeats over the same span, though the home side did manage to end that stretch with a victory in their previous fixture.
A recent rivalry with plenty of twists
The two sides have met four times since last October, with the results split evenly between them. Roma won the most recent Serie A meeting in January 2026 by two goals to nil in Turin, but Torino responded days later with a 3-2 win over Roma in the Coppa Italia.
Torino also won the corresponding fixture last September, edging Roma 1-0 away from home, while Roma took the spoils in the two other previous encounters stretching back to October 2024.
What is at stake
With Roma slightly ahead on wins across their recent matches, the visitors will hope to continue their positive form and open a gap on a Torino side still seeking consistency in the early weeks of the season.
For Torino, a home fixture against opposition they have beaten twice in the past year offers a chance to steady themselves after a stretch of defeats.
