Woolford this week joined the Lions from Bristol City for an undisclosed fee on a two-and-a-half year contract.
Boss Kenny Jackett swooped for the winger after losing Liam Feeney to a hamstring injury in the FA Cup win over Preston last weekend.
Fellow wideman Chris Taylor remains on the sidelines with a knee problem along with striker Andy Keogh, who has a broken toe, and skipper Paul Robinson with a pelvic problem.
But full-back Scott Malone could return after a back injury while Jackett can recall former Bolton defender Danny Shittu - who is no longer going to the African Nations Cup with Nigeria - and midfielder Liam Trotter after resting the duo against Preston.
