Lambert has admitted that he is unsure of the extent of Benteke's injury, but suggested that he will use a squad rotation policy when the club face off agains Spurs at Villa Park in the Capital One cup on Tuesday night.
Lambert said on the club's website :Â "We are waiting for the scan today and then waiting for the results so we will just have to wait and see (how long he will be out for),"Â
"I've got to make changes for tomorrow, that's for sure, because I've got a lot of injuries at the minute and Saturday's [game against Manchester City] is massive for us as well."
