Juventus take on Torino in the Derby della Mole and the Bianconeri will be strong favourites to win.
Juve are top scorers and have the best defence in Serie A. They have won their last three games, scoring twelve and conceding none in the process. Their good home form stretches back further than this season and they have won twenty-four in a row at home. Their home unbeaten run now stands at thirty-three games since losing to Sampdoria in January 2013.
Juventus will be without the suspended Simone Padoin and Kwadwo Asamoah is due to have surgery on a knee injury that will rule him out for weeks on end. Max Allegri will have to decide between Arturo Vidal and Roberto Pereyra at the tip of his midfield diamond with Vidal expected to get the nod.
Torino come into the derby in 15th place in Serie A. They have struggled to score goals since the departures of Alessio Cerci and Ciro Immobile in the summer and only Atalanta have scored less than Torino's seven goals this season. Toro have picked up just one point in their last three games and haven't scored a goal in that time.
Last year Torino reached the Europa League thanks mostly to the performances of Cerci and Immobile but most of their best performers this year have been in defensive positions with Matteo Darmian, Bruno Peres, Nikola Maksimovic and Kamil Glik the stand outs.
Juve have been victorious in the last six Derby della Mole's and based on current form it is difficult to see that run ending on Sunday.
