Juventus welcome city rival Torino to the Allianz Stadium tomorrow, Tuesday 28 February.

The match that wraps up Serie A Matchday 24 also sees out the second month of the year, a month in which Juve are undefeated in 10 league matches against the Granata.

Heading into the 156th Derby della Mole in Serie A, let's find out more about Torino's current form.

THE SEASON SO FAR

Torino trail Juventus by just one point. The Granta have collected 31 points from eight wins, as many defeats and seven draws.

Ivan Jurić's team have won two of their eight Serie A fixtures in 2023, against Fiorentina and Udinese, both with the only goal of the game. Four draws and two defeats, both again with the game's only goal against Spezia and Milan, complete the side's recent results.

The Granata did collect a prestigious win at Milan in the last 16 of the Coppa Italia but were knocked out in the quarter-final after Fiorentina exacted revenge for the league loss 10 days before.

In February Torino have maintained the symmetry that is defining their season, with a 1-0 win, a 1-0 defeat and most recently a 2-2 draw against Cremonese. Wilfried Singo scored the game's fourth goal after replacing Ola Aina.

With Aina suspended for the derby, Singo is in line for a place in the starting line-up on the right-side of midfied in Jurić's tried and tested 3-4-2-1 tactical set-up.

The other scorer for Toro against Cremonese was Antonio Sanabria.

KEEP AN EYE ON...

Tonny Sanabria is the player that leads the Toro attack and his five goals - three in 2023 - put him at the top of the team's scoring charts and is one goal shy of matching his personal best in Serie A.

What's more, the Paraguayan is the only player in the current Granata squad to have scored in the Derby della Mole. In April 2021 Sanabria scored a double in a 2-2 draw - the only time since 2015 that Toro have scored more than once against Juve.
