Charlton Athletic will welcome Wycombe Wanderers to The Valley this weekend with the home side heading into this one after another dismal start to a League One season that sees their playoffs hopes already at a low.
The London outfit have had a dreadful few years and have continued to move down the League One rankings and completely fail in their promotion bids. Ahead of this game, Charlton have managed to put together only two wins in seven games, beating Fleetwood Town 2-1 most recently with a brace from Alfie May. The second of his two goals was a penalty and was part of four shots on target from a total of 20 efforts.
The other win for the Addicks came back on the opening weekend of action, where George Dobson scored in the first half of the game to beat Leyton Orient. Since then, however, Charlton have gone on to lose six times across three different competitions, losing five of those matches in a row. This started with an EFL Cup first round loss to Newport County before losing to Peterborough, Bristol Rovers, Port Vale and Oxford United in the league.
They bounced back with that win over Fleetwood, but Charlton also suffered a defeat in their first Football League Trophy encounter with Crawley Town, going 1-0 down inside a minute. Miles Leaburn, George Dobson and Tyreece Campbell all got in on the act in that 4-3 loss to Crawley.
As for Wycombe, they managed to beat Crystal Palace U21s in their recent EFL Trophy outing, as Luke Leahy scored in the final few minutes of the game after coming off the bench.
This was the third win in a row for the club, having also defeated Northampton Town away from home before registering a rare home victory over Blackpool. In fact, this was just the second home win of the League One campaign for the club, having lost to Exeter City and drawn with Burton Albion on their own patch.
