Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Serie A fixtures, including Torino vs. Juventus.

Following their miraculous turnaround under new management, Monza aim for a fourth straight Serie A victory when they visit Empoli on Saturday.

While the Biancorossi have won three on the spin to move to 12th in the table, their hosts now trail them by two points, after narrowly missing out on a second win of the season last week.

We say: Empoli 1-1 Monza

Empoli have proved themselves to be a competitive outfit, despite their lack of wins, and they fought gamely to deny a superior Torino side last week. As a more defensively sound unit this term, they can now frustrate their in-form opponents and bring Monza's magnificent win-streak to an end.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Torino vs. Juventus (Saturday, 5.00pm)

Lurching from one disaster to another this season, Juventus arrive home from European humiliation to face city rivals Torino in Saturday's Derby della Mole.

The latest Turin derby - a fixture first played in 1907 - pits together sides separated by only two points and two places in the Serie A standings, and Juve's current crisis opens an opportunity for Il Toro to overtake them.

We say: Torino 1-1 Juventus

While Juventus are clearly vulnerable, Torino perhaps lack the tools to take full advantage and the weight of history bears heavily on their shoulders. The Turin derby is therefore set to be an attritional affair, in which a low-scoring draw is the likeliest result.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Atalanta vs. Sassuolo (Saturday, 7.45pm)

After dropping points for just the third time this season, unbeaten Atalanta BC aim for a return to winning ways on Saturday night, when they host Serie A rivals Sassuolo.

La Dea let two points slip in their top-three clash with Udinese last week but still sit second in the standings, while their visitors were beaten at home by Inter.

We say: Atalanta BC 1-0 Sassuolo

Atalanta are the only side yet to trail in any of their games during this Serie A season, so Sassuolo have their work cut out to take the initiative on Saturday night. Both teams have markedly improved at the back this term, too, which could lead to a tightly-contested home win.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
