Pedro ruled out, Isak a doubt for Newcastle

Pedro Neto has been ruled out of Wolves' clash with Southampton on Saturday due to an ankle injury. The winger sustained the problem in training and will now miss the trip to St Mary's. Meanwhile, Alexander Isak is a doubt for Newcastle's game against Manchester City on Sunday. The striker has been struggling with a thigh injury and will be assessed ahead of the match.

Fantasy Football implications

Pedro Neto's injury is a blow for FPL managers, as he has been one of Wolves' most consistent performers in recent weeks. He has scored three goals and provided two assists in his last four games. Alexander Isak's potential absence is also a concern for FPL managers, as he has been in good form for Newcastle since joining from Real Sociedad in the summer. He has scored two goals in his last three games. FPL managers may want to consider selling Pedro Neto and Alexander Isak if they are not confident that they will be fit for Gameweek 5. There are plenty of other options available at a similar price point.
