The Canadian made his first start for more than six months when he stood in for the injured Tyrone Mears at right-back in last weekend's draw at Ipswich.
However, he was sent off after picking up two yellow cards and now serves a one-match ban.
Laws expects Mears to shake off a shin injury and fill the right-back slot but defender Michael Duff remains sidelined with a calf injury.
Midfielder Chris McCann is out for six months with a knee injury while goalkeeper Diego Penny this week left the club after his contract was terminated by mutual consent.
