Torino have finally found a good manager for themselves - Ivan Juric, lured from Verona, where he had built a very competitive side. However, against perceptions and against the run of games, Juric has kicked off his campaign at the new club with back to back defeats.

Torino were the better team in 1-2 loss to troubled Atalanta. They surely deserved better in the follow up 1-2 defeat against Fiorentina on the road.

Now, after another proper cycle of work and preparations, Juric will be hoping to be 3rd time lucky and finally kick off the 21/22 campaign with a win he’s been overdue by now, some would say.

Torino’s not only added quality to the bench, but done well on the transfer market signing a couple of interesting names, who should help the manager execute his ideas on the pitch. Winger Brekalo (Wolfsburg loanee), Dennis Praet (Belgian National team midfielder on loan from Leicester) are both decent additions. Croatian winger Pjaca will be hoping to relaunch his injury plagued career. European champion Andrea Belotti is still with the club as well.

I’ve witnessed both of Salernitana’s fixtures upon their return to Serie A and had briefly reflected on it in the pick against them 2 weeks ago. They are a very defensively disorganized side, which is underlined by the 7 conceded goals in just 2 outings. They are interesting going forward, but the low quality defending has been and will be dragging them down. To give you some perspective on what Salernitana’s backline is, their central defender Norwegian Strandberg was a rotation player for relegation candidates Ural in the Russian Premier League not while ago. Or another centre-back Norbert Gyomber used to spend time with Akhmat in Russia and mainly played in Serie B level all his career. Talking about lack of experience at top tier level, Salernitana’s manager 67-year old Fabrizio Castori has a debut season in Serie A.

I see Salernitana as the perfect opponent for Torino, who should be particularly motivated for this fixture having suffered 2 defeats in as many rounds of the new campaign.

都灵终于为自己找到了一位优秀的主教练——伊万·尤里奇，从维罗纳引进，他建立了一支非常有竞争力的球队。然而，与人们的看法相反，尤里奇在新俱乐部以连败开局。

在 1-2 输给陷入困境的亚特兰大的比赛中，都灵是更好的球队。在接下来的客场1-2负于佛罗伦萨的比赛中，他们当然值得更好的结果。

现在，经过另一个适当的工作和准备周期，Juric 将希望本场能够获得好运，并最终以他迟到的胜利开始新赛季。有人会说，都灵不仅增加了替补席的实力，而且在转会市场上也表现出色，签下了几个有实力的球员，他们应该帮助主教练在球场上执行他的想法。边锋布雷卡洛（沃尔夫斯堡租借人）、丹尼斯普拉特（从莱斯特租借的比利时国家队中场）都是不错的补充。克罗地亚边锋皮亚卡希望能重振伤病职业。欧洲冠军安德里亚·贝洛蒂 (Andrea Belotti) 也仍在俱乐部。

我看了萨勒尼塔纳重返意甲后的两场比赛，并在两周前对他们的赛前简要分析。他们是一支防守非常混乱的球队，仅在 2 场比赛中就丢了 7 个球。他们的前场有一定实力，但低质量的防守将拖累他们。为了让大家对萨勒尼塔纳的后防线有所了解，他们的中后卫挪威球员斯特兰伯格，不久前曾是俄罗斯超级联赛降级候选人乌拉尔的轮换球员。另一位中后卫诺伯特·金贝尔曾经在俄罗斯与阿赫马特效力，他的职业生涯主要在乙级联赛中踢球。谈到缺乏顶级联赛的经验，这是萨勒尼塔纳的主教练 67 岁的法布里齐奥卡斯托里在意甲的处子赛季。

我认为萨勒尼塔纳是都灵的完美对手，他们应该特别有动力这场比赛终结新赛季的两连败。
