This is a first league meeting between and Stoke and Charlton for five years and Addicks' boss Nathan Jones will hope it goes better than his last encounter against another of his former clubs.
Charlton's 5-1 drubbing at home by Southampton on Saturday leaves them looking to avoid three successive league defeats.
A victory for Stoke and defeat for Middlesbrough against leaders Coventry would move the Potters into second place in the Championship.
The home side has won each of the past four league meetings between Stoke and Charlton, with this the first since a 3-1 victory for the Potters in February 2020.
