Charlton vs Portsmouth Predictions

• Both teams have scored in five of the last six meetings between Charlton and Portsmouth
• Both teams have scored in seven of Charlton’s last eight league matches
• Charlton have lost one of their last seven H2H against Portsmouth (W5, D1)
• Chuks Aneke has scored three times in his last 92 minutes of competitive football

Bank on both teams scoring

Charlton have had defensive issues all season and both teams scoring has been a regular theme in The Addicks League One matches. Both teams have scored in seven of Charlton’s last eight league matches, including in their last five consecutive home matches. This is a fixture that regularly sees both teams find the net – both teams have scored in five of the last six meetings between Charlton and Portsmouth. Both teams to score can be backed at 3/4 and looks a solid bet when these two League One rivals lock horns at The Valley on Monday.

Charlton can make the most of home advantage

Charlton have a great record in this fixture in recent times and despite currently sitting in 14^th in the League One table, The Addicks are unbeaten on home soil this season. Charlton have lost one of their last seven H2H against Portsmouth (W5, D1) and have already beaten Plymouth and Derby at The Valley in this campagin. Charlton haven’t lost any of their eight home matches in all competitions this season and are fancied to take the points on Monday, a win that would see them move within three points of the play-offs.

Look beyond Pompey’s league position

Portsmouth’s current league position may be slightly misleading. Pompey’s six league wins this season have come against teams with an average league position of 15.33 on current standings, with two of those six wins coming against sides that were promoted from League Two last season. Portsmouth have taken two points from their last three League One matches and make little appeal at 17/10 for their trip to Charlton on Monday. 

Aneke set to have an impact from the bench  

Chuks Aneke has had his injury issues this season and only made his first start of the campaign against Exeter last week. It took Aneke less than two minutes to get off the mark for the season and his goal record when he does play speaks for itself. The former Arsenal youngster has scored three times in his last 92 minutes of competitive football for The Addicks. Aneke is unlikely to start on Monday, but regularly makes a big impact when he comes off the bench and is fancied to notch his second of the season against Portsmouth.

Both Teams to Score will be the main selection for Monday’s game, with a 2-1 home win forming the Correct Score prediction.
