Crystal Palace have suffered a major blow with Jeffrey Schlupp set to miss two to three months with a hamstring injury.

As reported by Sportsmail on Sunday, Schlupp was pencilled in for a scan on Monday after being forced out of the 2-0 win over Sheffield United in the first half.

Manager Roy Hodgson confirmed Schlupp felt a hamstring pull and initial fears were he would be out for at least a month.
