Wanderers are back on the road to take on Dean Holden’s in-form Charlton side in front of the TV cameras.

Ian Evatt’s men enter the game on the back of a hard-fought 1-0 win against Forest Green, despite playing more than an hour with 10 men after Dion Charles was shown a bizarre red card.

The Whites have lost just one of their last 10 matches in all competitions and currently sit fifth in the League One table.

Meanwhile, Charlton have won their last three league matches and currently sit 15th in the table on 34 points.

They were due to face Peterborough at the weekend but that fixture was postponed due to a frozen pitch.

When and where is the game being played?

The fixture takes place at the Valley on Saturday, 28 January (12:30pm). Wanderers ran out 3-1 winners when the sides met at the UniBol back in September thanks to goals from Conor Bradley, Kieran Lee and George Johnston.

The Whites’ also recorded a memorable 4-1 victory on their last trip to the Valley, with Lee bagging a brace that day.
