The Italian striker picked up a yellow card in stoppage time at the end of the 1-0 defeat at St Mary’s.
He handled a high diagonal and then kicked the ball into the stands in frustration.
It was Pelle’s fifth booking of the season, meaning a one match suspension that will be served as Saints visit the Etihad Stadium.
