Chester's scans on his injured hamstring revealed damage that could take up to eight weeks to heal, the Hull Daily Mail reports. The Tigers defender is expected to miss at least the next six Premier League matches.

Chester missed time earlier in the season with an injury to the same hamstring. With just one goal this season, much of Chester's value is tied to Hull City's ability to keep a clean sheet. With Chester out, this also impacts goalkeeper Allan McGregor as Chester was a key man in the Hull City defense.

Chester was forced to leave Saturday's match against Norwich City in the 15th minute with a hamstring injury, Club Call reports. No time table has been set up for his return.

The hamstring injury Chester picked up is on the same leg that forced him to miss two months earlier in the season. His offense has been limited this season, as the defender has just one goal scored. When healthy, his value will remain tied to Hull City's ability to keep a clean sheet.

Chester put back a rebound from inside the six-yard box for his first goal of the year, and was very active all day, taking three shots with two finding the target. Unfortunately, Chester scored an own goal that wound up being the difference Thursday as Hull City lost to Manchester United 2-3.

Chester has played all 90 minutes in the five consecutive matches he has featured since returning from a hamstring injury. Despite the offensive outburst Saturday, Chester is not known for scoring many goals. His fantasy value will remain tied to Hull City's chances of keeping a clean sheet.

Chester looks to return Wednesday from a hamstring injury that has kept him out since September, Sky Sports reports. The defender has been training for the past two weeks and has a good opportunity to take James Chester's (suspension) spot in Hull City's Starting XI.

Chester has a tough matchup against Arsenal. It will be difficult for Hull City to keep a clean sheet and Chester doese not provide much offensive productivity.

Chester (hamstring) was injured trying to make a block in the final minutes of Hull City's 3-2 victory over Newcastle on Saturday, according to Sky Sports. Tigers' manager Steve Bruce fears the injury could mean Chester will miss up to six weeks of action.

Chester has started all five Premier League matches for Hull City but has provided very little fantasy value. He has taken just one shot all year and Hull have just one clean sheet on the season.
