Cardiff City will be desperate to finally record their first win of the season when they welcome Charlton Athletic, looking to bounce back from a narrow 1-0 defeat to Bolton. The Bluebirds were unfortunate not to take something from that game after producing 1.78 xG. Cardiff have won only 20% of their last 10 matches, although their home fixtures have been much more productive, averaging 3.50 goals and seeing BTTS land in all six. Chambers, Davies, Fish, and Lawlor remain sidelined.
Charlton Athletic, meanwhile, aim to put an end to their four-game winless run after playing out a goalless draw with QPR in a local derby. The Addicks managed only 10 goal attempts in that encounter and have scored just 1.10 goals per game across their last 10 matches. Their away fixtures have been far more open, averaging 3.83 goals, with BTTS landing in 83%. Nathan Jones has no fresh injury worries.
Charlton away matches average 3.83 goals across their last six, although only 50% of the H2H meetings produced three or more. Therefore, we are tempted to bet on Over 1.5, Over 2.5 goals and Both Teams to Score.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 19 September 2026 at 12:30.
