Hull City striker Abel Hernandez could miss up to a month of Premier League action with the groin injury he suffered during the win over Southampton on the weekend.
The Tigers’ picked up a vital win against an in-form Southampton to lift them nearer to Premier League safety, following a horrific run of form.
While there were plenty of positives in the win, Mike Phelan will have been left a little disappointed when both of his strikers were forced off in the first half.

Then it got worse for Hull when Will Keane injured his knee despite not making any contact with his opponent, which made the injury all the more concerning.
Hull City have today confirmed that Hernandez will miss around four weeks and he’s likely to be out for a month. The Uruguay international was pivotal to Hull’s promotion last year and he has made 11 appearances this term, scoring once.
Meanwhile, Mike Phelan will have to wait to find out the extent of Will Keane’s injury. The medical team require further tests on his knee to determine the seriousness of his injury.
