World Cup History

Adams was named captain for Qatar 2022 at age 23, becoming one of the youngest World Cup captains in US history. He started all four matches, providing leadership and defensive stability as the US navigated a tough group with England and Wales.

His composure under pressure and Premier League experience at Bournemouth make him the first name on the team sheet. Expect Adams to play every minute he's physically able to.

Value Pick

Over 2.5 Tournament Goals looks like the play. Pulisic's 0.03 G/90 rate this season, combined with being the primary creator and penalty taker for a home nation expected to go deep, makes this line hittable. In 2022 he scored the biggest goal of the tournament for the US despite only playing ~240 minutes. With a projected 420+ minutes in 2026, the math favors the over.
