Torino welcome AC Milan to the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino on the opening weekend of the new Serie A season.
The home side finished 2025/26 in 12th position last term, winning just 12 of their 38 league games. That was Torino's lowest Serie A finish for five years and there will be ambitions to seal a top-half finish this time around.
Meanwhile, it's all change at Milan, with Ruben Amorim taking over at the San Siro and the former Manchester United boss is looking to rebuild his reputation following a poor spell at Old Trafford.
The pressure to get things right with the Rossoneri will be unbearable at times, but should he get his side off to a quick start, the good times could return to the San Siro.

Torino v AC Milan Prediction
Best Bet: AC Milan to win @ 17/20
The previous two seasons have been ones to forget for Milan. The club finished eighth in 2024/25 and fifth last season and the only silverware that was won during that time was an Italian Super Cup.
Things have to change, but is Amorim the right man for the job?
Well, he does have prior experience of taking a fallen giant, Sporting CP, and returning them to the very top. Of course, his spell in England was disappointing, but this could be a chance for him to enhance his reputation once again.
Milan have won four of the previous seven meetings with Torino, including both during the 2025/26 campaign.
Since the beginning of 2020, the Rossoneri have tasted defeated against Il Toro on just four occasions.
Securing all three points away from home might just be the confidence-booster Milan need to go on and enjoy a much better campaign.
Alternative Bet: Over 2.5 goals @ 10/11
Both of these sides didn't have the greatest of attacking records in Serie A last term, scoring 54 and 44 goals respectively across 38 matches.
When the two clubs met, however, that soon changed. In the first meeting of the season, Milan prevailed in Turin, claiming a 3-2 victory, despite going two goals down after just 17 minutes.
At the San Siro a few months later, Milan sealed yet another 3-2 victory over Torino to complete the league double over them for the first time since the 2012/13 season.
The previous six games between these two sides has produced three or more goals, dating back to February 2023.
With both Torino and Milan desperate to begin their league campaign with a bang, expect plenty of goals on Sunday.

Pays @ 9/2
While goals are expected, the recent history of this tie suggests a clean sheet for either side is unlikely.
Indeed, both teams have scored in the last six meetings. Three of Milan's four pre-season matches also saw both teams scoring, while Torino conceded against Vado and Avellino.
If goals are to be expected, then so are yellow cards. The last clash between these two teams saw five bookings dished out and both sides have received a card across the previous seven meetings.
One player who Amorim will turn to in order to make the difference is Goncalo Ramos. The Portuguese striker joined from PSG during the summer transfer window and has already scored once for his new side in pre-season.
He will likely lead the line for Milan and there is no doubt about how effective he can be in the final third.
