Charlton Athletic team news and predicted XI to face Leyton Orient

Charlton Athletic are back in action this evening against Leyton Orient in the Papa John’s Trophy.

Charlton Athletic make the short trip to Brisbane Road with both sides joint-top of their group in the competition.

Caretaker boss Johnnie Jackson is unbeaten in his four games at the helm since taking over from Nigel Adkins and will be eager to carry on his impressive run of form.

However, the Addicks are expected to make some changes to their side again and give some young/fringe players some minutes.

Harry Arter made his return to the side last time out.
