Hull City have been rocked by injuries to Nikica Jelavic and Michael Dawson.
Jelavic, the Tigers' four-goal joint top-scorer, injured his knee during the warm-up of Saturday's 2-2 draw against Arsenal, while Dawson was forced off late on with an ankle injury.
Both players underwent scans on Monday and the prognosis is that they will miss at least a month of action.
