Charlton face their final match before Christmas on Saturday afternoon when they host Blackpool at The Valley (3pm).
Blighted by injury, Karl Robinson’s squad will be stretched to the limit for the encounter but they will hope to send every Addick home happy leading into the action-packed festive period.
Karl Robinson confirmed at his pre-match press conference that eight members of his first-team squad will be unavailable due to injury. Billy Clarke, Jason Pearce, Ricky Holmes, Jake Forster-Caskey, Tariqe Fosu, Ahmed Kashi, Patrick Bauer and Lewis Page are all out.
For Blackpool, strikers Kyle Vassell and Mark Cullen are out with hamstring injuries. Jim McAlister remains sidelined with a broken leg and Ollie Turton is a doubt with a dead leg.
Charlton and Blackpool have met 60 times in the past, with the Addicks winning on 18 occasions. There have been 18 draws while the Tangerines have come out on top 28 times.
The last time the two sides met came in 2015 when Charlton ran out 3-0 winners at Bloomfield Road. To watch the highlights, please click here
