Dichio has been plagued by a niggling groin injury and has opted to go under the knife in the hope of clearing it up while Hayles is still out after cracking two ribs against Ipswich Town earlier this month.
With Millwall needing to score to stay in the competition, manager Dennis Wise may play Barry Cogan behind a front two consisting of Neil Harris and Paul Ifill with Stefan Moore and Mark McCammon on the bench.
On a more positive note, Jody Morris could make an unexpected return from injury to claim a place in the starting line-up.
