Boertien joined the Brewers after leaving Walsall in June 2009

Burton Albion fear they could be without experienced full-back Paul Boertien for up to a month because of a calf injury.

Boertien had to be taken off during the first half of Saturday's 3-2 victory over Morecambe and is having a scan on Tuesday to assess the damage.

"It's looking like he's pulled a calf muscle," Brewers manager Paul Peschisolido told BBC Radio Derby.

"The worst-case scenario is that he could be out for three to four weeks."
