Felipe Anderson - Quiet versus Torino Anderson took one off-target shot, sent in one inaccurate cross, had one block and won three of three tackles in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Torino.

Pedro - Not dealing with major injury Pedro sat out the Torino game because an old scar in his calf flared up this week, coach Maurizio Sarri announced.

Impact Pedro has not strained his muscles, which would entail a multi-week absence, but he needs to be monitored almost daily to avoid bigger issues. He could be back for next Sunday's home game versus Milan but, since he is unlikely to see major minutes anytime soon, Felipe Anderson and Mattia Zaccagni will probably notch a few more starts.

Pedro - Doubtful for Torino game Pedro has not practiced in the last three days due to a calf problem, Tuttomercatoweb informs.

Impact Pedro has dealt with minor issues in the same area earlier in the season, and he is at risk of being ruled out altogether. Felipe Anderson and Mattia Zaccagni are the frontrunners to start on the flanks even if he somehow managed to be available.
