Despite leading Torino to promotion to Serie A the previous season, manager Gianni De Biasi was sacked 3 days before the start of the season. Alberto Zaccheroni came to Torino after two years of unemployment to take the helm. Six consecutive defeats led to Zaccheroni being sacked and De Biasi being reinstated as manager. Torino ultimately finished in 16th, avoiding relegation and an immediate return to Serie B by one point.
Torino's kit was manufactured by Asics and sponsored by insurance company Reale Mutua Assicurazioni.
