- Graham Potter confirmed the striker is not ready for two full matches in quick succession and plans a longer run-out against Slovenia.
- Sweden sit bottom of their World Cup qualifying group with one point from five games, leaving a Nations League playoff as their likely route.
- At Liverpool, Isak has one goal from eight appearances as Arne Slot says he remains in the end stage of rehab and has not yet trained at full intensity.
- The forward joined Liverpool for a British-record fee from Newcastle after missing pre-season and training alone, with former Newcastle chief Amanda Staveley publicly backing him to succeed.
