Charlton Athletic vs Preston is a Championship clash at The Valley on Saturday at 3pm, with the hosts fancied after a superb result last time out.

Charlton won at West Ham last weekend while Preston were beaten by Wolves, and the Addicks are favourites at home. Andy Francis has the best bets, a score prediction and the head-to-head record below.

Premium Tips

Andy is with Charlton, whose confidence should be sky-high after beating one of the promotion favourites.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Charlton Athletic to win and under 2.5 goals3/1Charlton head into this one buoyant after a statement win at West Ham, and home advantage at The Valley adds to their edge over a Preston side who were second best in a 3-1 home defeat to Wolves last time out. Despite that scoreline, North End remain a typically well-organised, hard-to-break-down outfit away from home, and with Charlton unlikely to need to chase the game against a side searching for defensive stability, a tight, low-event contest decided by a slender home margin looks the most probable outcome. Expect control and quality to edge it rather than a flurry of goals at either end
Karlan Ahearne-Grant over 0.5 shots on target and Collins Sichenje to be booked3/1Ahearne-Grant remains Charlton’s central attacking focal point and has racked up a healthy shot count this season, regularly testing keepers even when his overall conversion has been inconsistent, so getting at least one effort on target against a Preston defence low on confidence is a reasonable ask. Sichenje, meanwhile, has picked up cards at a notable rate in his short Charlton career as a combative, last-line centre-back, and facing a Preston side needing to press for a response, he looks likely to pick up another caution defending crosses and second balls under pressure

How Charlton Athletic go into the game

Charlton could hardly have dreamed of a better result than a 2-1 win at West Ham last weekend. The Valley will be rocking as the Addicks look to build on that famous victory.

Newly promoted but full of belief, Charlton are well-organised and dangerous. Backing up that win at home would mark a superb start to life back in the Championship.

How Preston North End go into the game

Preston were beaten 3-1 at home by Wolves last weekend, outclassed by promotion-fancied opponents. They travel to London needing a response to steady their season.

North End are typically well-drilled and hard to beat, but they were second best last time. A trip to a buoyant Charlton is a demanding test.
