Both sides come into this outing on the back of contrasting forms. Charlton Athletic have won their last two league games, whereas Barnsley have lost their previous two matches in all competitions, both by the scoreline of 3-0.
When the sides last met at Oakwell in September, it was Barnsley who came out victorious thanks to a 3-1 victory. Goals on that day came from Josh Benson, James Norwood and Devante Cole.
Dean Holden's side are currently sitting in 12th place and will be looking to make it three wins on the bounce in the league.
Meanwhile, Michael Duff's men are flying in sixth place, 12 points off second position. They will be looking for a win to end their two-game losing streak.

Key players
Charlton Athletic - George Dobson
The 25-year-old has just recently been appointed captain under Dean Holden.
Dobson plays in a deep midfield role for Charlton, marshalling the defence, as well as being the connector between defence and attack.
He will look to inspire his team to a third consecutive league win.
His pace also means he can drive up the pitch and help carry his team further up the field to create more chances.
Dobson can also be a threat from set pieces, and with only one goal so far this season will be looking to add to his tally.
Barnsley - Jordan Williams
Barnsley's attacking right-wing-back is always at the centre of any attacking moves the team creates.
He is a great crosser of the ball, possesses great pace and trickery and also knows where the net is having scored twice already this season.
Williams' pace is also beneficial defensively as he is able to battle competitively with pacey wingers to block crosses.
Then wins the ball and finds Devante Cole or James Norwood out with some beautiful crosses.
