Hull suffer Hernandez and Keane injury blows

Injuries to Abel Hernandez and Will Keane have depleted Hull City's attacking options in their battle for survival in the Premier League.

Hull City will be without striker Abel Hernandez for the next month after he picked up a groin injury in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Southampton.

Hernandez only lasted nine minutes at the KCOM Stadium as Hull recorded a third Premier League win of the season thanks to Robert Snodgrass and Michael Dawson.

Dieumerci Mbokani replaced the Uruguay international and he is likely to fill the attacking void left by Hernandez – who has made 10 league appearances for Mike Phelan's side in 2016-17.
