Charlton have 17 players out injured, Wigan unbeaten in 6 in the league, you know the rest.
We head into the game in brilliant form, 11 goals in our last three matches. We should have beat Shrewsbury on Boxing Day, but I think we’ll all forget about it if we win tonight and go seven points clear at the top.
Charlton are in poor form after starting the season very well, The Addicks have picked up just one point from their last four matches. Not such a surprise when you hear of the 17 injuries they have.
Hopefully a routine win against a injury-stricken, out of form Charlton.

Wigan boss Paul Cook has no new injury or suspension worries. Expecting him to name the same side that drew 0-0 vs Shrewsbury.
