Charlton boss Lee Bowyer is hopeful that Akin Famewo's loan isn't about to be disrupted by injury again, after a return to form and fitness continued for the Norwich City defender.

The 22-year-old missed all of November with a hamstring problem and then picked up an ankle injury in December which kept him out for two months.

The powerful centre-back has returned to action recently - having been a key part of the Addicks defence which conceded just two goals in the opening seven games of the season - and helped earn a 1-0 win at Wigan on Tuesday and a 0-0 draw at Oxford on Saturday.

He completed that draw, which leaves Charlton four points adrift of the play-offs, but had a tight hamstring.

"If you’ve got something wrong with the hamstring then you don’t get through a game – you’re done," Bowyer told London News Online.

“I’m hoping it is just neural from his back with the amount of travelling we have done, that has been crazy of late."

The downturn in form in the Swiss top flight continued for Basel, with Timm Klose making his 19th consecutive start. A 2-1 defeat to Servette saw their opponents move above them into second place, leaving Basel without a win in seven games.
