Charlton v Northampton team line-ups: Morgan handed first start since February 2

Albie Morgan is one of four changes for Charlton Athletic’s home game against Northampton tonight.

The midfielder has not even made the bench for the last four League One fixtures and it is his first start since the 3-1 home loss to Portsmouth at the start of February, when he was replaced at the break by Liam Millar.

Morgan replaces Arsenal loanee Matt Smith, who drops to the bench.

The other switches see Jayden Stockley, Chris Gunter and Darren Pratley – who has completed a two-match suspension – come in for Chuks Aneke, Akin Famewo and Adam Matthews.

Matthews came off with a hamstring injury in the first half of Saturday’s 0-0 draw with Oxford United. Famewo played the full 90 minutes but also had a tight hamstring.

Charlton: Amos, Gunter, Pratley, Pearce, Maatsen, Watson, Forster-Caskey, Morgan, Millar, Washington, Stockley. Subs: Harness, Oshilaja, Jaiyesimi, Aneke, Smith, Schwartz, Shinnie.

Northampton: Mitchell, Harriman, Sowerby, Horsfall, Hoskins, Watson, Miller, Kioso, McWilliams, Edmondson, Jones. Subs: Arnold, Bolger, Jones, Korboa, Morris, Rose, Marshall.
