Torino have found their stride. Como are carrying their European confidence back into Serie A. Tonight in Turin, two winning runs meet — and neither side arrives needing a reminder of what a good week can do.
Torino host Como at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino on Tuesday 27 October, with kick-off at 19:45 GMT (20:45 in Italy). The hosts are chasing a fourth successive league victory; Como have won their past three matches across all competitions.

Torino have turned their month around
Victories over Udinese, Parma and Monza have given Torino nine points from nine. The sequence has not been one repeated performance: a 2–1 home win, a convincing 3–0 away success and then a 3–2 finish against Monza on Friday.
That matters because their opening five league games brought just one win. They now have four victories from eight, with their last three matches producing eight goals. Supporters have a reason to look forward to the next game rather than back at the difficult start.
The question is whether that progress holds against an opponent who has already won three times away from home in the league this season. Torino’s latest run is encouraging; Como offer a different test of it.
Como bring more than a European headline
The 4–1 win over Manchester United last Wednesday was the eye-catching result. But Como’s league wins either side deserve attention too: 3–1 at Fiorentina, followed by a 2–0 home victory over Sassuolo on Saturday.
Across those three matches, Como scored nine goals and conceded two. In Serie A alone, they have five wins and two draws from eight games. Their only league defeat came at Frosinone.
There is a useful contrast here. Torino have gathered speed after a slow opening; Como have been collecting points more consistently. With 14 league goals scored and seven conceded, the visitors have given themselves a solid base to build on without needing every match to resemble the United result.
Who can keep the run going?
For Torino, another win would show that their October improvement can survive a meeting with one of the division’s stronger starters. For Como, this is a chance to follow a memorable home week with another away result.
Neither run makes the outcome inevitable. What it does give tonight’s match is a clear edge: two sides with recent wins to build on, and an immediate opportunity to take that progress further.
