I've just seen that too, Test.
If he does rest Graham, I wonder if it's going to be Samuel in that position. To be fair to his strengths, if he DOES play, I'd like to see him alongside Nuttall, because the Graham-role clearly hasn't suited him.
That might be more likely if Dack's rested too. We could then line up:
Raya
Bennett Lenihan Mulgrew Williams
Smallwood Payne Evans
Armstrong
Nuttall Samuel.

A noticeable lack of width, but with our injuries this season, we've had to get used to that.
Alternatively, of course, we could go for three at the back, with Bennett and Bell as wing-backs.
I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Bell in the starting XI, anyway.

Given Charlton's League situation, this is the first match in a long time I wouldn't really be shocked to see us lose, but I'll stick to a draw.
