HULL City face an anxious wait to find out the extent of new signing Robert Snodgrass's injury after he damaged his knee in the Premier League opening game against QPR.
Snodgrass has been one of manager Steve Bruce's key summer signings and has impressed since joining City from Norwich for £7m.
But after he pulled up with a twisted knee before half time in the 1-0 win at QPR, there are concerns he may be sidelined for several weeks.
Bruce confirmed yesterday that Snodgrass has suffered knee ligament damage and will undergo a scan to investigate the extent of the damage.
Snodgrass left Loftus Road in a brace and on crutches.
Meanwhile defender Alex Bruce is unlikely to travel to Belgium this week for City's Europa League play-off game against Lokeren after also suffering a knee injury.
Bruce also had to leave the game against QPR being replaced at half time after a solid first half performance.
He is doubtful for the Lokeren game and is likely to be rested.
The Tigers continue their European exploits with the short trip to Belgium on Thursday. All 1,236 away tickets for the first away leg sold within 24-hours.
City return to Premier League action against Stoke City at the KC on Sunday.
