Charlton vs Bury Predictions

Charlton and Bury are two teams in contrasting form right now. The visitors are unbeaten in three matches, winning two of those, and come here having lost just one of their last seven. On the other hand, Charlton are without a win in five and come into this off the back of a disappointing 1-0 defeat at home to Oxford during the week.

It’s fair to say that Bury have really turned things around of late. The Shakers have shored things up at the back and finally look like winning football matches. With this in mind, favouring the visitors over the out-of-form hosts here is the way to go. At odds of 1/1 ‘Bury Win/Draw Double Chance’ is the bet that makes most appeal.

There’s never been any question over the forward-line of Bury, the visitors are capable of scoring goals against anyone in this league. It was a poor defence that was letting them down for so long, but with these problems seemingly sorted, their strong-looking attack is now making a real difference. Against a Charlton side who’ve started to struggle defensively, Bury could easily do some damage.

The hosts remain a reasonable side on their own patch, but they’re struggle to score goals and a defence that once looked water-tight is now starting to leak. Having kept just one clean sheet in their last five at home, Charlton could find life tough against a Bury side who’ve scored more goals on the road than anyone in League One, apart from the top two.

Right now, the visitors are the team who should be full of confidence and they’re fancied to continue their good form by gaining at least a point when travelling to take on a rather lacklustre looking Charlton side.
