Charlton Athletic will host Bristol Rovers at The Valley on Sunday in another round of the 2024-25 EFL League One campaign. The hosts will be keen to continue their impressive run of form and potentially move into playoff spots early in the second half of the season.
Charlton’s narrow 1-0 victory over Shrewsbury Town during the weekend saw them register their fifth win in their last seven league outings thanks to a late winner from Thierry Small. The hosts are currently sat in 10th position but are only two points behind sixth-placed Barnsley and should move higher up the table if they manage to string together some more wins in the coming weeks.
Bristol picked up their 14th loss of the league season last time out in a 2-0 defeat away to Wigan Athletic and are currently 18th in the league.
Trending
The visitors have now lost four of their last six league games and will be keen to pick up results this midweek to improve their chances of staying up and avoiding being in the relegation battle.
