Wales will assess Gareth Bale's fitness for the friendly against Spain on 11 October and the Nations League match with Republic of Ireland on 16 October.
The 29-year-old forward was replaced in the 80th minute of Real Madrid's 1-0 La Liga loss at Alaves on Saturday.
Real boss Julen Lopetegui said: "Gareth had [an injury], so we had to make decisions regarding changes."
However, Bale - his country's record goalscorer - did join up with the Wales squad in Cardiff on Sunday.

Spain's side is likely to contain several of Bale's Real Madrid team-mates.
But if he is carrying a knock, Bale may not be risked next Thursday at the Principality Stadium because Wales are then in competitive action against the Republic in Dublin five days later.
