John Brayford has made 11 appearances for Burton this season

Burton Albion captain John Brayford has been ruled out for up to three months with a hamstring injury.

The 33-year-old defender suffered the injury in the opening minute of Saturday's 1-1 draw at AFC Wimbledon.

Boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink described the prognosis as "not good".

"He's going to go to a specialist on Wednesday, but it definitely looks like it's going to be 8-10 weeks, and it may be three months," Hasselbaink told the club website.
