Burton vs Charlton Match Preview

Burton is ranked at the rock bottom of the table being 24th-placed with only seven points and is winless in the last five matches having only two draws and three losses. They have won just one out of 13 matches played so far and they have got all the motivation needed here to try and get a positive result. In the past season they ended in the middle of the table and at some point could even compete for the playoffs, so I do not think they are gonna get relegated now.

They have scored 14 goals until now despite all these negative results and have the second-best attack from the bottom half teams. In the last five matches, they scored five goals managing to score at least a goal in four duels. At home, they earned four points and scored a goal in five out of six matches played.

Charlton, on the other hand, is ranked at the 5th place with 23 points and comes almost in perfect shape after four wins and just a draw over the last five matches. In fact, they are unbeaten in the league for eight matches in a row where they got six wins and two draws while scoring at least a goal in each of the last five matches totaling ten goals.

That is an average of two goals per game and while on the road they scored at least a goal in five out of six matches played. In the past season, Charlton got relegated from Championship, but if they keep going like this they have all the right cards to earn a fast promotion.

In conclusion, I think both teams can score at least a goal here. Burton needs vital points so they will do all they can in order to punish Charlton. In their two most recent h2h games, both sides scored at least a goal in each one. Charlton is playing good football and with another win in this one, they could consolidate their position in the playoffs while aiming for higher.
