Double doubt for Charlton

Charlton have doubts over Johann Gudmudsson and Chris Solly ahead of their home game against Nottingham Forest.

Midfielder Gudmudsson and right-back Solly both suffered muscular injuries during Saturday's 3-0 win over Huddersfield.

Teenage defender Joe Gomez will keep his place in the back four if Tal Ben Haim fails to recover from the injury which sidelined him at the weekend.

Captain Johnnie Jackson (leg) is still sidelined along with left-back Rhoys Wiggins (calf) and winger Franck Moussa (knee).

Dougie Freedman has no new problems as he looks to extend his unbeaten start as Forest manager to seven matches.

The Scot made three changes at Reading on Saturday from the team that started the win against Bournemouth, recalling Matty Fryatt, Jamie Paterson and Michael Mancienne. Paterson was substituted at half-time but it was a tactical switch by Freedman and not due to injury.

Freedman may opt to tweak things again in London, despite beating the Royals 3-0, and he has the likes of Dexter Blackstock, Gary Gardner, Chris Burke and Kelvin Wilson to call on.

Chris Cohen (knee), Andy Reid (groin) and Jack Hobbs (hamstring) remain absent for Forest.
