Charlton will be without Jonny Williams for their Sky Bet League One clash with in-form Rochdale on Saturday.
The midfielder twisted an ankle last week and will be unavailable for the Addicks' last game of the regular season before their play-off campaign begins.
Manager Lee Bowyer said Lyle Taylor, Patrick Bauer and Krystian Bielik will be returning to the squad after the side were left without the trio last weekend. Bowyer has no other injury concerns but will continue to be without suspended defender Chris Solly.
Rochdale manager Brian Barry-Murphy is likely to be without defender Ryan McLaughlin. McLaughlin missed his side's last two matches after being forced off after 30 minutes in the win over Wycombe on April 19.
Kgosietsile Ntlhe could feature for Barry-Murphy's side after being an unused substitute during Rochdale's 1-0 win over Southend on Saturday following his return from injury. The manager could be set to make changes to his starting line-up after Rochdale secured their place in League One with last weekend's win.
Charlton have won six of their eight home games in all competitions against Rochdale (D1 L1), although they've only won one of the last three.
Rochdale have lost just one of their last six league encounters with Charlton (W3 D2), winning the last two by a 1-0 scoreline.
Charlton have won each of their last five home league games, they haven't won six in a row at the Valley since September 2017.
Rochdale have won each of their last three games to secure safety in League One, they haven't won four in a row since a run of five in January 2017.
Ian Henderson has either scored or assisted in Rochdale's last three games (2 goals, 1 assist), with the Dale winning 1-0 in each contest.
