Granada will be without the services of Dani Benitez for between four and six weeks after the midfielder picked up a hamstring injury in Monday's 2-0 win over Athletic Bilbao.

The 26-year-old is officially contracted to Italian outfit Udinese, but has been on loan with the La Liga side since 2009, making more than 100 league appearances for the club.

He entered as a second-half substitute in Monday's success over Bilbao, but was replaced just five minutes later after pulling up.

Resulting scans have revealed that the attacker has suffered a damaged hamstring in his left leg, which will keep him on the sidelines for at least a month.
