Jedinak only recently returned from a groin injury, scoring a hat-trick as Australia defeated Honduras 3-1 on aggregate in the 2018 World Cup inter-confederation play-off.

The midfielder had also made four appearances off the bench for Villa before being handed a start in Saturday's 2-0 win over Ipswich Town in the Championship.

However, Jedinak had to be replaced after 26 minutes after succumbing to a shoulder injury.

“Jedinak has a problem with his shoulder,” Bruce said.

“For him to come off with it, there’s something wrong.

“We hope it’s not too bad.”
