Live Charlton Athletic vs Wycombe Wanderers: Lineups and updates from League One play-off
After the excitement of Stockport County vs Leyton Orient in the other League One play-off semi-final, Charlton Athletic vs Wycombe Wanderers promises to be a cagier affair. The tie is goalless going into this evening's second leg at the Valley, which is not surprising given that just one point separated the sides during the regulation season and just one goal on goal difference. Speaking after the first leg, Charlton manager Nathan Jones said: 'It was a tough game, a war of attrition. 'We defended our box excellently and I felt we finished really strongly. 'It's evenly poised and it's not a bad place to be. We've got to win a home game to get to Wembley and I think we'd have taken that. 'I'm really proud of the performance because we showed a resilience. Would I have liked us to play a bit more and create a bit more and show a bit more quality? Yes.' Wycombe's Richard Kone was perhaps fortunate to avoid a red card in the first leg, but the League One Player and Young Player of the Season, scored 18 goals during this season and is available to start tonight. Jones expects Charlton midfielder Chuks Aneke to be 'extremely motivated' as he is now available for selection after serving a three-game ban. The striker was sent off in the aforementioned 4-0 win at Wycombe last month for an off-the-ball incident, but he is in contention to feature, most likely as a substitute. Jones said: 'We're glad to have Chuks back. We've had to suffer three games without him, but he gives us a headache because now he's available and extremely motivated.' Charlton and Wycombe have played on 16 previous occasions, with the south London club winning eight, Wycombe four and the remaining three meetings, including the first leg, resulting in draws.
