Stoke City captain Andy Griffin looks set to be out for the rest of the season after a scan confirmed he has suffered a torn hamstring.

The initial diagnosis suggests that the full back will be out for three to four weeks and will miss the Potters' end of season push for promotion.

Griffin pulled up sharply and had to be substituted in the 2-1 win over Coventry at the Ricoh Arena.

It looks likely that he will now miss City's final three games of the season.
