Aberdeen will travel to Ukraine for their UEFA Cup match against Dnipro with only one senior goalkeeper after Derek Soutar was injured in a reserve team outing.

Dons boss Jimmy Calderwood will have just Jamie Langfield available for Thursday's first round second leg tie after number two Soutar suffered a badly bruised toe playing for the club's second string.

"It's a blow to lose Derek but we don't know how long he will be out for yet," admitted Calderwood.

"I'm hoping it is not too bad and we have him back after the international break.

"We were planning on taking three goalkeepers to the Ukraine but we will take two now.

"Greg Kelly will be on the bench against Dnipro."
