Prediction: 2-0
Doncaster
Charlton will look to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Sunderland when they take on Doncaster Rovers in the relegation six-pointer. The Red Robins did well to beat the promotion-chasing Black Cats on the road, and it should come as no surprise the bookies see them as favourites to win Saturday’s clash. Defender Sam Levelle, who suffered an injury in the Stadium of Light game, will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The Donny, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Cambridge United. Doncaster are tough to beat at home, but given their seven-game losing run on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the capital club. To make things even worse for the visiting side, midfielder Dan Gardner suffered an injury in the last league match.
Highlighted Player (Jake Forster-Caskey ):
Born in Southend-on-Sea, England on April 25, 1994 Jake Forster-Caskey is a midfielder who plays for Charlton Athletic in the League One. Forster-Caskey started his both youth and senior careers at Brighton & Hove Albion and it has to be noted that he scored five goals in 67 league appearances for the Seagulls first team.
After spending a couple of seasons on loan at the likes of Oxford United, Milton Keynes Dons and Rotherham United, the English footballer signed a two-and-a-half year deal with Charlton Athletic in the winter of 2017. Jake quickly established himself as a first-team regular at the capital club, scoring 5 goals in 43 appearances in the 2017/2018 League One campaign.
However, he was out of contention for most of the 2018/2019 season with a serious knee injury. His main position is central midfielder, but he is capable of playing as both defensive and left midfielder as well.
