The former Derby man missed the win at Aldershot on Saturday after aggravating the shoulder injury he suffered last August in training and he could miss the rest of the run-in.
However the Brewers are boosted by the return of on-loan Wolves striker Sam Winnall from his suspension.
Defender Nathan Stanton requires a groin operation and will miss the rest of the season but long-term absentee Paul Boertien (groin) has a chance of being involved.
Defender Ryan Austin has been ruled out for the remaining games with a hand injury as Paul Peschisolido's side look to build on Albion`s third away win of the season on Saturday.
