Following on from suffering a loss in their previous game against Norwich City in FA Cup competition, Charlton Athletic will be aiming to make amends here.

Milot Rashica (79') was the scorer for Norwich City.

A run of very capable displays by the Charlton Athletic defensive players has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded standing at 3 from their last 6 fixtures combined. During the same time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves is 5. Even so, we’ll just have to find out whether that trend might be sustained in this match.
