History of the Charlton Athletic v Fulham fixture

Charlton prepare to entertain Fulham at The Valley on Saturday afternoon, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. Addicks have the slight edge, having won 9 of the 23 games compared to Fulham's 6 wins.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at The Valley was less than a year ago, in May 2003, with Fulham inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Addicks in a Premiership match.

Recent respective form guides

Charlton Athletic have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. While Addicks have scored 10, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Fulham's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occassions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 11 goals for the Cottagers, and 9 goals against.

Charlton's 18 points from 11 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 7th position. Fulham find themselves in a respectable 6th position, courtesy of the 18 points they have accumulated from 11 games.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Charlton at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Addicks will at least gain a draw. Score draw

Charlton Unbeaten in the last 3 home games.
Not won in the 2 most recent games.
