MATCH PREVIEW | Charlton v Ipswich Town

Ben Garner confirmed in his Friday press conference that Corey Blackett-Taylor (hip) is set to return to the squad, though Ryan Inniss is unavailable as he begins his two-match suspension.

Diallang Jaiyesimi (ankle) and Miles Leaburn (ankle) are longer-term absentees.

Ipswich will welcome back skipper Sam Morsy following a one-match suspension, while Kane Vincent-Young (calf) could also return to the matchday squad.

Greg Leigh (compression fracture), Lee Evans (knee), Sone Aluko (knee) and Gassan Ahadme (foot) will all miss out for the visitors.

Ipswich currently sit second in Sky Bet League One with 36 points, just two points behind league leaders Plymouth Argyle who inflicted the Tractor Boys’ solitary away league defeat this term in September.

Kieran McKenna’s side travel to the capital in excellent form having claimed five wins from their last six league outings.

Ipswich’s last trip to SE7, meanwhile, resulted in a 2-0 triumph for Charlton with Jayden Stockley and Alex Gilbey both on the scoresheet.

Josh Smith will be the man in the middle on Saturday. The official last refereed a Charlton fixture in January – a 1-0 Emirates FA Cup defeat against Norwich City.
