Our Three Predictions For Charlton Athletic vs Huddersfield Town

- - - Prediction 2 – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 10/3

- - - Prediction 3 – Charlton Athletic To Win – 23/20

First Prediction For Charlton Athletic vs Huddersfield Town – Both Teams To Score – 4/5

These two sides are more than capable of scoring this weekend. Huddersfield’s prowess is well-known, with their 5-1 demolition of Crawley Town in their previous game where both strikers that started in West Yorkshire in Joe Taylor and Callum Marshall scoring. 56% of all Huddersfield’s goals have come on the road, and have won three of their last five away games. Charlton are the lowest goalscorers in the top-half of the League One table, but have still averaged 1.29 goals per game. Both of their goals in the win over Wigan Athletic came courtesy of top goalscorer Matt Godden.

Second Prediction For Charlton Athletic vs Huddersfield Town – Callum Marshall To Score – 10/3

The Northern Irishman scored in his last Terriers appearance against Crawley and saw very limited action on international duty, playing just 22 minutes against Sweden. He has scored in three of his last five League One appearances and with Dion Charles failing to find his feet since his switch from Bolton Wanderers, the 20-year-old may be trusted from the start despite a trip to Scandinavia on Tuesday. In his last game against a top six side he did struggle against Wrexham but in his last game against a playoff chasing team, he forced three saves and was unlucky to not score against Barnsley last month.

Third Prediction For Charlton Athletic vs Huddersfield Town – Charlton Athletic To Win – 23/20

The off-field switch up at Huddersfield Town with the sacking of Michael Duff did start off on the right foot with their win over Crawley, but now they face a major test in a well-drilled Charlton Athletic. The Addicks have done well against sides in and around them over the past few months, with wins over Barnsley and Leyton Orient, as well as a draw against Stockport County. Nathan Jones will want a major response from his side after being well beaten by Peterborough United last time out, and with their home form only being bettered by Wrexham and Birmingham City, Charlton could take all three points.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head

Charlton Athletic come into this match in a very strong position, sitting in fourth place and six points clear of seventh-placed Bolton, with The Trotters having a game in hand. The Addicks had a six-game unbeaten run snapped in their last match during the international break, with strugglers Peterborough United roundly beating them in Cambridgeshire. Across their last five, they have beaten Barnsley, Crawley and Wigan Athletic in addition to a draw with Stockport County. Nathan Jones’ side cannot overtake Wycombe Wanderers should results go their way, but could fall below Stockport should they fail to beat Huddersfield and County claim a win over Burton Albion.

Huddersfield have seen a change in manager in recent weeks as owner Kevin Nagle finally deposed Michael Duff of his position following The Terriers’ loss to Bristol Rovers before the international break. The caretaker role was handed to Jonathan Worthington, who immediately made an impact with a 5-1 demolition of Crawley Town, which kickstarted the removal of Rob Elliott in Sussex. Town have only won two of their last five, with the other coming against Stevenage. They lost to Wigan and Wrexham in addition to Bristol Rovers. The win over Crawley pushed Huddersfield back into the top six, and a win could bring them to within one point of Stockport County should they lose this weekend.

Huddersfield have trounced Charlton when it comes to their matches since 2010, with The Terriers winning 11 of their 17 matches played, whilst Charlton only tasted victory in four of those. In their last five fixtures, Huddersfield have won by a combined score of 14-2, all of which were wins. The last time Charlton beat Town was in February 2015 at The Valley. The reverse fixture this season saw a 2-1 win for Michael Duff’s side with David Kasumu scoring the crucial goal against the ten-man Addicks.
