Charlton manager Russell Slade has two new signings in contention for Saturday's League One visit of Northampton.

Josh Magennis arrived from Kilmarnock on Thursday before Jordan Botaka joined on a season-long loan deal from Leeds.

Slade does, however, remain without Patrick Bauer, who is short of match fitness, and the injured Alou Diarra, Ahmed Kashi and Ricky Holmes.

Lee Novak could return having been rested for Tuesday's EFL Cup defeat at Cheltenham.

With no fresh injury concerns, the only players missing for Northampton are Brendan Maloney, Raheem Hanley and Jak McCourt.

The Cobblers will finally be able to give a debut to defender Lewin Nyatanga, 30, who signed on a season-long loan from Barnsley this week but could not make his debut against his parent club in their midweek EFL Cup win.

Gabriel Zakuani, Aaron Phillips and Harry Beautyman are also among the new faces who could start, while Alfie Potter and Rod McDonald both returned to training recently.
