Fulham vs Charlton Betting Tips and Predictions

Neither side are enjoying great seasons and Charlton in particular look like they are heading for the Championship unless they can turn around their current poor form. They’ve just 1 win in 15 matches in all competitions and are 6 points from safety although will cut that gap if they can beat Fulham who are only 1 point better off than the sides just outside the relegation zone.

Fulham must be a frustrating to team to support. They show glimpses of real quality and cruised to a 3-1 win away to neighbours QPR only last Saturday. However just 3 days later they slumped to a 3-0 defeat away to a Blackburn side that had been completely inept in front of goal coming into the game and it is just 2 wins in 18 matches for Fulham overall.

Reason for Betting Tips

Goals and Fulham matches go hand in hand but there have been more at the wrong end as far as they are concerned over the past few months. They have the best goalscoring record outside the top 6 but 3rd worst defence and come up against a Charlton side that have the worst defence in the league but did score 4 goals in their last away game. Therefore consider backing there to be over 2.5 goals here at 8/11.
