What happened. Torino coach Ignazio Abate confirmed Che Adams will miss Monday's match against Roma due to an adductor problem. Giovanni Simeone is also a doubt with a back issue, leaving Torino potentially without a recognised centre-forward.

• Saul Coco has recovered and is available for selection.
• Duvan Zapata's knee is responding positively to treatment.
• Abate says Torino could play without a centre-forward if needed.

“We could play without a centre-forward.”

— Ignazio Abate

Torino host Roma on Monday at 17.30 UK time, aiming to build on their first win of the season.
