Town’s Boxing Day game at Charlton Athletic is expected to take place as scheduled despite the proposed 24-hour Tube strike. Arsenal could postpone their match against West Ham due the industrial action with some other London-based games also thought to be in doubt.

However, a spokesperson for the Addicks says the game at the Valley, a 1pm kick-off, isn't in danger: "We are monitoring the situation but can't see there being any problems."

In addition to the Tube strike, there is no Southeastern train service stopping at Charlton station on the day of the game.
