He joins another ex-United player, midfielder Darron Gibson, on the absentee list.
The game also comes too soon for midfielder Richie Towell.
Bradford pair Zeli Ismail and Gareth Evans are both back in contention after recovering from hamstring injuries.
Summer signing Levi Sutton is also available again after suspension.
Midfielder Callum Cooke is doubtful with a calf injury and forward Billy Clarke (hamstring) will be assessed.
Kurtis Guthrie is nearing a comeback but fellow striker Lee Novak is still out.
