Charlton go into their clash against Swindon on the back of a disappointing 2-1 defeat away to promotion rivals Peterborough United on Tuesday night.
They led at half-time thanks to a Conor Washington penalty but the Posh turned the game around in the second-half to win courtesy of a brace from Sammie Szmodics.
The defeat means the Addicks have won once in their last seven games in the league but remain in the Play-Offs, a single point above Crewe Alexandra.
