Samp v Torino stat pack: Blucerchiati hunting 5th straight home win

With the help of Football Data, we’ve put together a few facts and figures for you ahead of Sunday’s meeting with Sinisa Mihajlovic’s high-flying Torino.

Samp on 15-game scoring streak at home against Torino

Sampdoria have found the net in each of their last 15 home games against Torino, racking up 22 goals in the process. The last time they fired a blank against the Granata at the Stadio Ferraris was back on 7 March 1993, when Paolo Poggi’s strike sealed a 1-0 win for the visitors.

Blucerchiati seeking five in a row in Marassi

Marco Giampaolo’s men come into this fixture on the back of four consecutive home victories: 2-1 against Genoa, 1-0 over Inter and 3-2 against Sassuolo in Serie A, plus Wednesday’s 3-0 Coppa Italia success against Cagliari. If Samp succeed in extending their winning streak at the Stadio Ferraris to five matches, it would be the first time they have achieved such a feat since April-August 2010. Back then, they recorded six straight victories on home soil: five in Serie A plus a Champions League play-off.

Samp’s opponents see red

Sampdoria are the Serie A side who have seen the most opponents get sent off in the opening 14 rounds of league fixtures: five.

Watch out for Belotti

Andrea Belotti has been the most decisive player in the league so far this season. His goals have earned 12 points for Torino against Bologna (5-1), Roma (3-1) and Cagliari (3-1) at home and Crotone (2-0) away.

Torino on 10-match scoring run

Sinisa Mihajlovic’s men have found the net in each of their last 10 games, notching 27 goals in total. The last team to stop them scoring was Pescara (0-0) on 21 September.
