Gold Coast United will be without defender Dino Djulbic for Friday night's week 2 clash with Wellington Phoenix.
The 27-year old former Perth Glory centre-half pulled up sore from yesterday's season opening scoreless draw with Brisbane Roar with a swollen knee which has just sparked up in the last week or so.
''It doesn't stop me playing at the moment but the club wants it to be looked into because whenever there's swelling there's concern,'' Djulbic said.
''It could just be a bursa and it might resolve itself but it's a question of just taking a closer look.''
