Jesus missed Thursday's 1-0 loss to Braga due to a hip knock, according to manager Sean Dyche, per Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post. "He's got a bang on the hip. It was too inflamed to be involved."

Jesus would be forced to miss out Thursday as his club took the field for UEL, with it now confirmed that it was due to a hip injury. However, it was only a knock to the hip, something more minor that shouldn't warrant a major absence. He will then look to make a late recovery for Sunday's contest against Brentford, hoping to earn back his starting role if fit.
