Our 3 predictions for Wycombe Wanderers vs Charlton Athletic

3rd prediction: Both teams to score

1st prediction for Wycombe Wanderers vs Charlton Athletic: Wycombe Wanderers to win or draw – 1/5

This is a massive game at the top of League One which will have a huge impact in the automatic promotion and play-off races, whatever the result. If Wycombe win and rivals Wrexham draw, they will go four points clear in 2nd with two games to go; frankly, any bettering of the Welsh side’s result will be invaluable at this stage of the campaign. Wycombe had been struggling under new manager Mike Dodds and slipped out of the top two but have hit form at the right time which has put them in the drivers seat, and a win here would help hugely. Charlton can still go up mathematically but a loss here would remove that chance, with the play-offs looking more likely. They’re mathematically assured of the play-offs, but a surprise away win here would give them a greater chance of a favourable tie.

2nd prediction for Wycombe Wanderers vs Charlton Athletic: Over 2.5 goals in the game – 11/10

With the circumstances of the game and the squads on show, this is likely to be a high scorer. Wycombe are the league’s second top scorers and Charlton aren’t far behind, with both sides showing incredible attacking quality on their way to strong seasons. In Richard Kone and Matty Godden they both have players near the top of the scoring charts, so there will certainly be goals of both are on top form on Easter Monday. Both sides are in good form and full of confidence as they head into games they have to win, with Charlton scoring in seven of their last eight and Wycombe in their last three. Nothing will be left to chance at Adams Park, so we should see an open and attacking game of football.

3rd prediction for Wycombe Wanderers vs Charlton Athletic: Both teams to score – 17/20

This is a similar prediction to the previous one. As mentioned, both sides are in great form and high on confidence in front of goal, which they will hope will carry through to the end of the season. In addition to this, the high stakes nature of the tie for both teams means they will have to go for it, and if their players reach their potential on the day we are likely to see goals from both teams. A win for Wycombe would ensure they remain in the top two whatever Wrexham do and will put them in the drivers seat for the final two fixtures. A win for Charlton is the only way they keep up their slim hopes of automatic promotion so they will attack, though they are probably getting ready for a play-off campaign. With such a key game ahead of us, we’re in for a treat.

Full preview of the game: last results and head to head

This is a massive game. If Wycombe win or better Wrexham’s result against Blackpool, they will be in the driver’s seat for promotion with two games left, though nothing can be confirmed in this round. A loss would open the door for Wrexham to potentially overtake them, so a win is a must. Charlton, on the other hand, must win her to keep up any hope of automatic promotion. Play-offs are confirmed and look to be the likely result, with the Addicks looking to bag a favourable position.

In terms of form coming into this, both sides are doing well. They both have the same record in their last six; a loss, a draw and four wins. Both come into this off the back of a win – Wycombe’s a 2-0 at Bolton, Charlton’s a 2-1 against Northampton.

Taking fixture history into account, it’s advantage Charlton. They’ve won eight to Wycombe’s four, with only a couple of draws. Crucially, they won the reverse fixture, so wil hope to inflict a very painful double on their opponents on Monday.
