Jeffrey Schlupp to miss Crystal Palace clash against Brighton and Hove Albion with an injury

Premier league side, Crystal Palace has been dealt a huge injury blow ahead of their Monday night clash against Brighton and Hove Albion in the English premier league

The in-form defender who has netted twice in his last two league games won’t be available for Roy Hodgson side following an injury which forced him out at half time in their last league match against Watford

Manager Roy Hodgson confirmed in his post match conference that the Ghanaian will be out for a couple of weeks

Hodgson said: “Those two [Schlupp and Van Aanholt] won’t be available. Joel Ward is of course not available. Certainly those [are sidelined]. Unfortunately there are one or two others who might get added but I’m not willing to discuss that now.”

Focusing more on the length of time Schlupp and Van Aanholt will be unavailable to Hodgson, the Palace manager confirmed Schlupp is suffering from a hip injury and said: “The doctors are not very willing to put timescales on injures but it will keep him out for a period of time. There’s no question of him missing this game and then bouncing straight back. We’ll have to wait and see.”
