BILLY Clarke is out of Bradford City's play-off campaign with a fractured cheekbone.
The striker suffered the injury near the end of Sunday's 2-0 win at Chesterfield.
Clarke, who had scored City's second goal, will have an operation today.
Phil Parkinson said: "Billy got a whack on the cheekbone in the second half and went straight to hospital afterwards.
"It's a big blow. Obviously Billy getting his goal was a bonus for us and he will be disappointed to be missing this key games.
"But unfortunately injuries do happen."
James Hanson is having a scan this afternoon on his calf problem and City are continuing to monitor Reece Burke, who came off at half-time at the weekend with a groin strain.
