Charlton vs Birmingham prediction, odds and how to watch

Sam Dalby's 18th-minute strike was enough for Bolton Wanderers to take all three points at The Valley, as Charlton's alarming run of form continued with a fifth defeat in their last five Championship matches they failed to win.

Middlesbrough dismantled Charlton 3-0 at home with Will Lankshear grabbing a brace and Charlton failing to register a single shot on target. This was a performance built on desire, basics, and the kind of accountability Charlton simply could not match.

August Priske Flyger scored twice for Lincoln City but it was not enough, as Birmingham claimed a 3-1 victory at Sincil Bank thanks to a second-half Tom Bayliss goal and an Alex Cochrane own goal that sealed the points.

Charlton have conceded eleven goals in five Championship matches and have not kept a single clean sheet. Birmingham arrive at The Valley having kept four clean sheets in that same window. Something has to give.

Birmingham have been near impossible to score against in recent weeks. Bolton have been doing the opposite of that.

Charlton arrive at Ewood Park without a win in five Championship matches and having conceded eleven goals in that run. Blackburn will fancy this.

Burnley are leaking goals, losing matches, and showing precious little desire to fix it. Birmingham arrive at Turf Moor on Wednesday with clean sheets in their bones and a point to prove.

Charlton have not won in five Championship matches and are leaking goals at an alarming rate. Bolton arrive with problems of their own, but they look the more likely side to take something on Tuesday night.
