Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Charlton Athletic will be aiming to build on a 2-1 win over Bolton when they take on Shrewsbury Town in the League One round 28. The Red Robins are only four points behind the playoffs berth and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Shrews. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the home team, Jamaica midfielder Karoy Anderson is pushing for a rare start after scoring as a substitute in the last league match.
The Shrews, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Wrexham and they managed to get one. Shrewsbury aim to move closer to the safe zone, but given their poor away record (1-3-8) in the 2024/2025 League One campaign, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home side. Both Pierre and Gilliead picked up injuries in a 2-1 win over Wrexham and, as a result, the duo is rated doubtful for Saturday’s encounter.
Highlighted Team (Charlton):

Charlton Athletic are yet another capital club that will compete in the 2019/2020 Championship season. Founded back in 1905, the Red Robins welcome their opponents at the Valley, the stadium which can hold up to 28,111 spectators. Charlton Athletic wear red shirts and white shorts when playing on home soil, whereas black is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Winning of the 1946/1947 FA Cup trophy is considered the club’s biggest success. The Red Robins defeated Burnley 1-0 in the title game, with Chris Duffy scoring the winner for Jimmy Seed’s charges in extra-time.
Fellow capital clubs Crystal Palace and Millwall are regarded as Charlton’s fiercest rivals, whilst Samuel Bartram, who made 579 appearances for the club is one of the most famous footballers who played for the Valley outfit. The club based in London will compete in the English second tier in the 2019/2020 season following a three-year absence.
