Scans show Perth Glory captain Jacob Burns does not have a fracture in his ribs but they are badly bruised.
Burns will not travel with the team to the Gold Coast this week and will continue to be assessed and monitored.
The captain injured himself in the 52nd minute of yesterday’s 1-nil win against Central Coast in a collision with John Hutchinson.
In other news, defenders Steve Pantelidis and Josh Mitchell are not suspended for this Sunday-s game.
Both players have only received 5 yellow cards, and not the 8 that is required to accumulate an automatic one game suspension.
The rules read: once all clubs played twenty-one (21) matches, players receive a mandatory one (1) match suspension when they receive eight (8) yellow cards.
