The on-loan centre-back has ruled himself out of the game against the Dons at the Britannia stadium on Tuesday night so that he isn't cup-tied for Leicester City when he returns from his loan spell.
Marcus Hall will also be missing from the side as he begins a three-match suspension for the red card he received in the 1-0 win against Burnley last month.
The winners of the tie will face Birmingham City away in the 4th round on January 24th.
