Sunderland boss Sam Allardyce has revealed that Jermain Defoe and Sebastian Larsson are doubtful for his side's Premier League clash against Arsenal.
Both players were forced off during the Black Cats' 2-0 win over Stoke City at the Stadium of Light on Saturday.
Allardyce believes that the injuries are not long term, but has conceded that the duo will probably miss his team's trip to the Emirates Stadium.
He told the club's official website: "Jermain suffered an injury to his hamstring not his ankle – he felt it go sadly – and obviously Seb Larsson medial ligaments.
"Hopefully they will be fit as quickly as possible – they probably aren't going to be fit for next weekend but hopefully the week after."
Sunderland moved out of the relegation zone for the first time this season following their win over the Potters.
