Scotland duo Finn Russell and Cameron Redpath are facing lay-offs after sustaining what Bath describe as “significant” injuries.
Both players were withdrawn during the 21-15 Champions Cup defeat at Exeter on 6 April.
Scotland co-captain Russell, 31, has a groin problem while centre Redpath, 24, has damaged ankle ligaments.
Bath head of medical Rory Murray did not give a recovery timeframe for either player when announcing the news.
He did say the duo would be “assessed weekly”, with head of rugby Johann van Graan explaining: “The reason why we say weekly is it is too difficult to put a specific timeline on.
“We will make that decision as every week goes by and hopefully we will see them back sooner rather than later.”
Referring to fly-half Russell, Van Graan added: “The injury is what we call significant, so what we mean by that it is not something that he will quickly run off in five or six days.”
