The 6 players set to miss Charlton Athletic v Derby County ft Harvey Knibbs | OneFootball

FLW takes a look at those set to miss out in the Addicks' clash with the Rams on Tuesday evening at The Valley

Charlton Athletic host Derby County on Tuesday evening, with both sides heading into the clash off the back of 1-0 victories in their most recent Championship fixtures.

The Addicks saw themselves past nine-player Sheffield United at The Valley on Saturday, with Sonny Carey scoring the only goal of the game as Djibril Soumaré and Japhet Tanganga were both given their marching orders in the first-half.

Meanwhile, the Rams defeated Preston North End at Deepdale, with Patrick Agyemang's 82nd minute header enough to seal all three points in Lancashire. It was Derby's sixth away win of the season, and only Coventry City and Middlesbrough have picked up more points on the road in the Championship in 2025/26.

However, six players are set to miss out on Tuesday evening between the two sides, and Football League World has taken a look at those missing.

The three players missing for Charlton Athletic vs Derby County

Charlton's form has been wayward for a few months now, and after a bright start to the season, their dream of a top ten finish in their first season back in the Championship has been knocked back dramatically.

Now, the Addicks will have to compete without Harvey Knibbs, after he was stretchered off against Sheffield United on Saturday in the 39th minute. The 26-year-old joined the club in the summer and has scored three goals in 23 league matches under Nathan Jones. However, he now faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Meanwhile, Amari'i Bell missed out against the Blades, and there are doubts about whether he will be able to return to the squad for the clash against Derby. The centre-back has played 18 times this season in the league, and has already suffered two other injuries.

Finally, Onel Hernandez has been out of action since November, with his head coach explaining at the time of his injury that he would be out for "weeks rather than days".

Derby County trio set to miss out on Charlton Athletic trip

Derby also have three players set to miss out on Tuesday's game, with Carlton Morris still recovering from a leg injury that he suffered against Watford in a 3-2 defeat in November at Pride Park. The striker is still in the Championship's top five scorers, but it'll still be a few more weeks until he is ready to return to action.

Max Johnston is another long-term injury issue for John Eustace, and the right-back is still not ready to return to the matchday squad after pulling up with a hamstring injury against QPR on October 25. The Scottish international will be back training with the rest of the team this week, and could make his return to the bench after his side's match against West Bromwich Albion on Friday.

Danny Batth could also be out for Derby's visit to The Valley on Tuesday, after the centre-back dropped out of the starting XI on Saturday against Preston in the warm-up. He suffered a blow from an academy player in training and was unable to regain fitness at the weekend.

Dion Sanderson could be back in the side against Charlton after a bout of shin splints, but Eustace may not be prepared to throw him back into the XI after such a strong showing from the Rams defensively at Deepdale.
