Ninth-placed Torino will welcome last-placed Cremonese at the Olimpico di Torino in Serie A on Monday (February 20).
The hosts' three-game unbeaten league run was snapped in a 1-0 defeat at reigning champions AC Milan on Friday. With just three points separating them from 12th-placed Empoli, they need to avoid dropping points to slip into the bottom half of the standings.
Cremonese, meanwhile, remain the only winless team in the Italian top flight this season following their 3-0 defeat to league leaders Napoli on Sunday. It was their third consecutive league defeat.
