Crystal Palace have injury concerns over Yohan Cabaye and James McArthur after both midfielders pulled out of international duty.
Yohan Cabaye will not feature in France's friendly with Italy on Thursday or their World Cup qualifying match against Belarus due to a groin injury.
The midfielder withdrew from Didier Deschamps' squad after picking up the slight injury concern, his club Crystal Palace have confirmed.
Palace were not keen on the 30-year-old doing any further damage to the problem as they prepare to face Middlesbrough after the international round of fixtures.
Another member of Alan Pardew's squad has also opted out of international duty due to injury, James McArthur pulling out ahead of Scotland's qualifier with Malta.
