The midfielder is still struggling with a thigh strain.
Manager Slade said: "He is not going to make Saturday but he should be OK for the last two games with a bit of luck."
Lloyd Owusu is a major doubt for the Liberty Stadium match after twisting his ankle in the 3-0 defeat to Crewe Alexandra.
"He is making progress although it (the ankle) is still strapped up and being iced to get the bruising out," said Slade.
Marc Bircham (knee) may train tomorrow but Zoltan Stieber (thigh) and Craig Alcock (ankle) are doubts.
Yeovil's reserves host Bristol Rovers in the Pontin's Wales and West Division today (2pm).
Marvin Williams and Liam Bridcutt will feature along with centre-back Rob Fitzgerald, signed from Hillingdon Borough. Slade said: "He's got potential. He's 19, 6ft 2ins, he needs to develop physically to be a bit stronger in the air, but he has got good feet for a centre-half and he reads the game well."
Fitzgerald will be joined by on-trial Coventry City centre-back Liam Francis.
