Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridgecan't seem to catch a break, as the prolific but injury-prone forward suffered a hamstring injury just one week after making his first start for the club since October.Continue for updates.Sturridge to Miss 'Weeks' With Hamstring IssueTuesday, Dec. 8As reported by BBC Sport's Dan Roan, Sturridge is set to miss the festive period after suffering yet another injury. According to Goal UK's Melissa Reddy, a scan revealed a hamstring strain, which should rule him out for the remainder of 2015.The 26-year-old had only just returned to action, making his first start for the clubin the 6-1 demolition of Southampton following a long spell on the sidelines. He started the Reds' last match on the bench but played almost 30 minutes in the 2-0 loss against Newcastle United, per WhoScored.com.Sturridge looked fantastic against Southampton, celebrating his return with a brace and leading the Reds' attack in arguably their best performance of the season. His absence during the holiday period will be a massive blow for manager Jurgen Klopp, who will have to turn to the Belgian duo of Christian Benteke and Divock Origi to lead the attack.The former has looked very solid since making the move to Anfield from Aston Villa during the summer, but he lacks Sturridge's predatory instincts around the box.
