Struggling Aston Villa have suffered a fresh injury blow, with Alan Hutton out until November.
The Birmingham Mail says Hutton will be out until after the international break later this month.
The right-sided defender had returned to the first-team fold after being frozen out at Villa Park as part of the infamous 'bomb squad' last season.
However Hutton is set to miss out on the Scotland clash with England on November 18 and unlikely to be available again for Villa until Premier League games resume at the end of the month.
