Status uncertain for GW4

Dedic's hamstring injury does not appear to be serious after he was withdrawn at halftime of Tuesday's Carabao Cup win over Millwall, according to coach Matthias Jaissle. "I treat these things really confidentially. I hope my staff too, that nothing comes out. Because first of all, it's about the player and it's about his health. But what I said already after Millwall, it doesn't look too serious."

Analysis: Dedic felt discomfort in his hamstring during Tuesday's cup tie, prompting Newcastle United to take no risks despite his substitution also being partly planned. The encouraging update suggests the full-back may avoid an extended absence, though his availability for Monday's clash against Leeds will depend on his progress over the next few days. Dedic has made a strong start since joining from Benfica, recording three assists and providing consistent attacking threat from the right side, while Valentino Livramento represents the most likely replacement if he is unavailable.

Picks up hamstring issue

Dedic was withdrawn at halftime of Tuesday's 1-0 Carabao Cup win over Millwall after experiencing discomfort in his hamstring, according to coach Matthias Jaissle, per The Northern Echo. "Amar felt a little bit of something with his hamstring, so we didn't want to take any risk. But it was also planned that Tino Livramento got more minutes than last time [against Bournemouth]."

Analysis: Dedic's substitution was partly planned to give Valentino Livramento additional minutes, but the hamstring discomfort prompted Newcastle United to avoid taking any risks with the full-back. He will be assessed over the next 24 hours, leaving his availability for Monday's trip to Leeds United uncertain. Dedic has made an impressive start since joining from Benfica, recording three assists while providing a consistent attacking threat from the right side.
