Ben Haim starts as sub for Bolton

Bolton defender Tal Ben Haim was named on the bench for tonight’s Barclays Premiership clash with Charlton at the Reebok Stadium, despite renewed speculation linking him with a move to Chelsea.

Boss Sam Allardyce made only one change to the side which gained a creditable FA Cup draw at Arsenal on Saturday, with Henrik Pedersen coming in for ankle injury victim Kevin Davies.

Charlton boss Alan Pardew named an unchanged side but welcomed striker Kevin Lisbie back to the bench after 12 weeks out with a shoulder injury.

Bolton: Jaaskelainen, Hunt, Meite, Faye, Gardner, Nolan, Campo, Speed, Pedersen, Anelka, Giannakopoulos.

Subs: Walker, Teymourian, Vaz Te, Tal, Ben Haim.

Charlton: Carson, Sankofa, El Karkouri, Hreidarsson, Thatcher, Rommedahl, Faye, Holland, Hughes, Thomas, Marcus Bent.

Subs: Randolph, Ambrose, Lisbie, Hasselbaink, Diawara.

Referee: L Probert (Gloucestershire)
