Belghali could return for Lecce; Fortini out until the break
Abate hopes to have Belghali and Cacciamani back for Lecce, while Fortini misses out again with a groin problem and Patterson pushes Aboukhlal for the spot.
Torino are working through their wing problems ahead of Saturday's match against Lecce. According to Tuttosport, Belghali has a chance to be in the squad: the knee knock he picked up at Frosinone kept him out of training for the first two days, but if it settles he could rejoin the group.
Fortini will not be available before the international break, as a groin problem (pubalgia) has kept him out of the last five matches and his return has been pushed back. Cacciamani, who has a shoulder subluxation, did not play at the Stirpe, but could at least make the bench.
On the other flank, the battle between Aboukhlal and Patterson remains open, and the Scot may have a better chance to start this time.
