TEAM NEWS

Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Ben Garner confirmed a decision would be made on Monday if Corey Blackett-Taylor would be able to be involved in Tuesday's game. The winger missed Saturday's win at Shrewsbury Town with a hip injury.

The Addicks will still be without longer-term absentees Diallang Jaiyesimi (ankle) and Miles Leaburn (ankle).

MK Dons Manager, Liam Manning, named an unchanged side for Saturday's narrow loss to Wycombe Wanderers. Manning will have midfielder Dawson Davoy available, as he returns from a three-game suspension. 

THE OPPOSITION

Milton Keynes finished last season third in Sky Bet League One but haven't started this season as they hoped. 

Liam Manning's side currently sit bottom of the division, having won just three of their opening 14 games. 

They come in to Tuesday's game having lost their five previous league games.
