Duel With Dickov

A second v first clash, though it is very early days. Charlton will be expected to be there ot thereabouts come the end of the season though their visitors will have more modest ambitions.

The game gives Pawel Abbott an early opportunity to play against his former club. The match should prove to be an entertaining spectacle.

Charlton will be without suspended duo, Jose Semedo and Christian Dailly, as well as long term absentee, Kelly Youga.

Therry Racon will continue to deputise for Semedo with Miguel Llera, so impresssive when he came on for Dailly at Orient, again partnering Doherty.

Simon Francis' height will see him retain the right-back slot while another to impress last Friday, Lee Martin, will play just behind Pawel Abbott.

Warren Feeney, who aggravated an injury while on international duty during the week, is a doubt for Dickov's team. The fiery Scot will be pleased that influential midfielder, Dale Stephens, has penned a new deal.

Rob Shoebridge of Derbyshire will be the man-in-the-middle.
