Gritty against Genoa Izzo had two interceptions and two clearances and won four of six tackles and 13 duels in Friday's 0-1 loss to Genoa.

Impact Izzo replaced the injured Koffi Djidji and filled the stat-sheet thanks to an impressive performance. The teammate will likely be back after the break, but he might have earned more minutes with his recent displays. He has tallied nine tackles, ten interceptions, ten clearances and three crosses in six appearances (two starts). Torino will face Salernitana away in two weeks.

Subs in well against Inter Izzo had three interceptions and five clearances and won five duels and two of two tackles in 39 minutes in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Inter.

Impact Izzo came off the bench to replace the injured Koffi Djidji and was energetic in the back. He has rarely played this season but, considering this performance and the fact that David Zima is under the weather, he could get his second start in Friday's away game versus Genoa. He has notched three crosses, three tackles, eight interceptions and eight clearances in five appearances.

Impact Izzo has had trouble shaking off a calf contusion, but he has made strong progress in the last couple of days. He could be eased into action at first, but he should supplant Koffi Djidji down the line.

Unavailable versus Sassuolo Izzo (calf) is having trouble absorbing a bruise he picked up a week ago, coach Ivan Juric announced.
