Premiership: McEwan takes charge of last Charlton game

Derby caretaker coach Billy McEwan took charge of his Barclaycard Premiership relegation battlers for what could be the last time at Charlton tonight.

Talks are continuing over installing former Aston Villa manager John Gregory as the new Pride Park boss.

The Rams, five points from safety with 15 games to play, were without suspended duo Luciano Zavagno and Francois Grenet.

Charlton, in 10th place but dumped out of the FA Cup by Walsall on Saturday, had midfielder Scott Parker back in the starting XI after a ban.

Claus Jensen (knee) and Mark Fish (stomach bug) both missed out.

Charlton: Kiely, Konchesky, Costa, Fortune, Powell, Bart-Williams, Parker, Stuart, Robinson, Euell, Johansson.

Subs: Ilic, Kishishev, Brown, Svensson, Lisbie.

Derby: Oakes, Mawene, Riggott, Higginbotham, Jackson, Boertien, Valakari, Powell, Ducrocq, Christie, Ravanelli.

Subs: Grant, Carbonari, Kinkladze, Morris, Bolder.

Referee: D Pugh (Bebington)
