Torino confirm Che Adams faces up to three weeks out with a right soleus partial sprain, missing matches vs Genoa and Lazio. Betting impact: expect Torino to struggle for creativity without Adams—consider backing under 2.5 goals or wagering on Genoa/Lazio to take points while he’s sidelined.
Che Adams sidelined for up to three weeks with soleus muscle sprain
Torino have confirmed that striker Che Adams will be out of action for up to three weeks after medical examinations revealed a partial sprain in the soleus muscle of his right leg. The club’s statement estimates a recovery time of around 20 days.
Matches affected
Adams will miss Sunday’s trip to Genoa and the Serie A fixture against Lazio on March 1. His availability for the subsequent clash with Napoli remains doubtful and will depend on how his rehabilitation progresses.
Frustrating timing ahead of the World Cup
The injury is a setback for Adams as he aims to reach peak fitness for the summer World Cup. Scotland have already qualified automatically, so the immediate national-team position is secure, but recurring fitness issues would raise concerns ahead of the tournament in North America and Mexico.
What this means for Torino
Adams’ absence removes a key attacking option and could blunt Torino’s offensive threat. The club will need other forwards and midfielders to step up creativity and finishing during his recovery period.
Betting outlook
With Adams unavailable, bettors should factor in a likely dip in Torino’s attacking potency. Markets to consider include lower total goals for Torino fixtures (under 2.5) and increased value on opponents such as Genoa or Lazio to pick up points or win. Monitor team news for confirmed lineups before placing bets.
