Isco is expected to move back into the starting XI in place of Luka Modric, who is sidelined for at least three months with a groin injury, ESPN FC reports.

Isco has been in excellent form, though he recently was playing in place of the injured Gareth Bale, who has returned to fitness. Replacing Modric will leave him in a much more defensive role, but if he's able to move up while Toni Kroos holds back, he could still be a valuable fantasy contributor.

Isco scored his first goal of the season, while also adding an assist, in Real Madrid's 5-0 rout of Levante on Saturday.

Isco got the start in place of Gareth Bale, who sat out with an illness. He is an incredible talent when he's on the field, but Isco's playing time is just too inconsistent to rely upon in most fantasy formats.

Isco came on for Luka Modric in the 71st minute and grabbed two assists in Real Madrid's 8-2 La Liga win over Deportivo La Coruna on Saturday.

Isco continues to find it hard to break into the starting XI, but Madrid have so many goal-scorers on the teamsheet that Isco is a threat to pick up an assist or score a goal himself whenever he's on the field.

Isco assisted on Cristiano Ronaldo's 90th minute goal during Real Madrid's 2-0 win over Cordoba on Monday.

Isco didn't even enter the match until the 70th minute when he subbed on for James Rodriguez. The Madrid midfield is absolutely stacked this season, which could make it tough for Isco to see consistent appearances in the starting XI.

Isco was inserted into the Starting XI for Sunday's match against Getafe after Gareth Bale pulled out with a groin injury. The Spaniard went on to score a goal in the 59th minute before being subbed off for Jese in the 84th.

Isco has been excellent for Los Blancos this season, scoring four goals and recording an assist through five matches. He'll look to keep it going Wednesday against Elche.

Isco scored in the 26th minute and again in the 72nd during Sunday's 3-1 victory over Athletic Bilbao.

Despite the presence of Cristiano Ronaldo on the squad, it's Isco who has been the best fantasy option for Real Madrid so far this season. He now has three goals and an assist through three Liga matches, with his next opportunity to build upon his stats coming September 14 against Villarreal.

Isco scored in the 87th minute to net three points for Madrid against Real Betis on Sunday.

Isco moved to Madrid in a €27 million transfer from Malaga this summer and he is making the investment pay dividends almost immediately.
