Charlton Athletic will host Wycombe Wanderers at The Valley on Saturday in another round of League One football.
The home side have had mixed results this season and sit some distance away from the playoff spots as the league campaign rapidly approaches an end. They beat Cambridge United 2-1 in their last game, with Miles Leaburn and Jesurun Rak-Sakyi getting on the scoresheet before their opponents scored a consolation goal midway through the second half.
Wycombe have enjoyed a largely solid campaign despite recent struggles and continue to push for the promotion playoffs. They were beaten 1-0 by in-form Barnsley in their last League One outing and perhaps deserved more from the game but failed to convert their chances before their opponents scored a late winner.
The visitors sit eighth in the league standings, with 60 points from 37 games. They are four points away from the playoff spots and will be looking to reduce that gap on Saturday.
