Team news for Tuesday night's Sky Bet Championship clash between Bolton and Charlton.

Sky Bet League 1-bound Bolton expect to have a largely unchanged squad for Charlton's visit to the Macron Stadium.

Dorian Dervite (ankle) has returned to full training and should bolster Wanderers' defensive options before the campaign concludes while there is an outside chance that Wellington Silva (groin) has not played the final game of his loan spell from Arsenal.

Emile Heskey, 38, will be assessed to see if he can start two games in four days so Kaiyne Woolery could come into consideration in attack as Gary Madine (hip) remains sidelined.

Jay Spearing will not play again this term because a further appearance will trigger a bonus payment to Liverpool while Max Clayton (hamstring) is missing too.

Charlton's relegation will also be confirmed if they fail to win, but head coach Jose Riga is expected to make few changes given his team impressed despite losing 1-0 to Derby on Saturday.

Respective calf and hamstring injuries mean that Yaya Sanogo and Stephen Henderson are unlikely to travel north.

A groin problem picked up against Derby on Saturday means that Johann Berg Gudmundsson is also a doubt.

Riga otherwise has a fully-fit squad from which to choose.
