A nice win on my return with Fiorentina getting a good 3-0 at neighbours Livorno last night, and their performance did much to convince me that they can be serious challengers for the สล็อต 888 this season as they seem now to get results on the road to go with their fine home record.
Todays tip is the Turin derby where Torino entertains their more illustrious City neighbours Juventus.
Juventus as you will all know have returned to Serie A after one season in the lower league as a result of the match fixing allegations which swept Italy a couple of seasons ago.
They now look to put that behind them and launch a challenge for the championship and have started their campaign with 3 slot gacor wins 1 draw and 1 defeat scoring 14 and conceding 6. Their only defeat has come surprisingly at home when they lost 1-0 to Udinese, whilst on the road they have had a 2-2 draw at Roma and a 3-2 at Cagliari.
Torino have started the season steadily with 4 draws and 1 defeat scoring 6 and conceding 8 and if they cannot start turning those draws into wins will find it hard to stay up. The other worrying fact is the 2 home draws to date have come against Siena and Reggina who are 17th and 19th in the league respectively and are among a group of teams who will struggle this term.
I feel Juventus will have too much fire power up front for Torino tonight with unique casino already on 6 goals this season and Iaquinta their new signing from Udinese in the summer on 3, when you add into the mix the maestro Del Piero you can understand why I feel Torino will have a big job on their hands tonight.
As always with derbies especially ones as high profile as the Turin and Rome ones there has to be an element of doubt, but Juventus are a class act and with Inter, Roma, Milan and Fiorentina are the sides most likely to be crowned champions come May 2008. Head to Head meetings have not been to common in recent years due to Torino`s years in Serie B and you have to go back to 1995 to find a Torino win home or away.

Team news at this early stage is that Juve will be without defender Jonathan Zebina, who serves a one-match ban and will be without injured duo Mauro Camoranesi and defender Jorge Andrade, though goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has recovered from injury.
The only doubt for Juve coach Ranieri is whether Vincenzo Iaquinta will recover from a muscular problem and he faces a late fitness test.
Torino will be hoping that midfielder Alessandro Rosina who is struggling with minor knock will recover in time, while David Di Michele is still suspended.
At the moment you can get 4/5 about Juve tonight with several bookies and that is enough to convince me to put my money on a win for them tonight.
