Team news
Captain Jackson back for Charlton Johnnie Jackson and Chris Solly should return to the Charlton starting line-up for the visit of Stevenage.
Skipper Jackson has missed the last two matches with a calf problem but has resumed training and is expected to take his place on the left wing.
Solly returns at right-back after an illness caused his late withdrawal from the side which drew 1-1 with Rochdale on Tuesday night.
Rhoys Wiggins, who filled in at right-back, will revert to his usual spot at left-back with Cedric Evina set to drop out.
Striker Danny Haynes is expected to miss out again with a hamstring problem.
The Addicks are now seven points clear of Sheffield United at the top of League One after back-to-back draws.
Stevenage boss Gary Smith may opt for changes for the trip to the League One leaders after seeing his side lose in midweek.
Jeff Hughes' last minute goal condemned Smith to a first defeat in charge of the Hertfordshire side as they went down 1-0 at Notts County and the Boro boss will be looking for his side to bounce back at The Valley.
Chuks Aneke, who has yet to feature under Smith and has not played since his red card against Leyton Orient at the start of January, is pushing for a recall, as are defender Phil Edwards, midfielder Stacy Long and striker Don Cowan.
Charlton vs Stevenage
Last modified 17:52 25/02/12
Wright-Phillips seals Addicks win Michael Morrison and Bradley Wright-Phillips struck second-half goals as leaders Charlton returned to winning ways with a 2-0 home victory over Stevenage.
Stevenage had an 18th-minute penalty claim ignored when Mark Roberts went to ground under a challenge from Yann Kermorgant and the Addicks had a similar appeal rejected by the officials after Johnnie Jackson appeared to have been tugged back by Joel Byrom.
Wright-Phillips should have put the leaders in front in the 36th minute when he was picked out by Kermorgant's pass, but his volley ended up on the roof of the net.
Luke Freeman almost gave Stevenage a first-half stoppage time advantage, but he fired his shot into the ground at the back post after connecting with Stacy Long's cross.
Charlton broke the deadlock within four minutes of the restart with Morrison's stunning shot from 20 yards that flew past Stevenage goalkeeper Chris Day for the defender's fifth goal of the season.
And the lead was doubled in the 64th minute as Wright-Phillips shook off Jon Ashton and ran into the box before firing past Day, with Stevenage's Ronnie Henry possibly getting the last touch on the goalline.
