Pedro Neto Injury: Doubtful against Liverpool

Neto (knock) is unlikely to feature in Saturday's clash against Liverpool, according to coach Calum McFarlane. "Neto is carrying knock, he is unlikely to be available."

Neto's absence could extend to a second consecutive match, with the Portuguese winger having also missed Monday's fixture against Nottingham Forest. The right winger has been one of Chelsea's more consistent contributors this season, scoring five goals and providing four assists across 32 Premier League appearances, making his continued unavailability a notable concern as the season enters its final stretch. While he has not been ruled out entirely, Neto is unlikely to be fit enough to feature on Saturday, with Cole Palmer expected to start on the right wing if he is unable to play.
