Doncaster or draw
The first of our tips is a little bit of a safety-first with the fact we're using the ‘double chance' to cover our bases. The reason for this is because we're going against the overall form book somewhat. Donny have taken just two points from the previous 15. Charlton have taken nine. A look specifically at Doncaster's home form though changes things slightly; they're unbeaten in four. They hold the edge in head-to-head games too, having only lost once in the previous five meetings.
Under 2.5 goals
Doncaster's last 10 home matches sees them average bang on 2.5 goals per game. Charlton, however, are typically involved in lower-scoring affairs of late with an average of just 1.8 across their prior five. The away side will be missing one of their biggest attacking threats in Conor Washington whilst the hosts main man – Fejiri Okenabirhie – is going through a dry spell. It all combines for a low-scoring and tightly fought match.
Omar Bogle to score anytime
The third and final prediction we make backs Omar Bogle to score anytime. Bogle actually joined Charlton in October but just four months later he was on his bike. Then manager Lee Bowyer cited he had slipped down the pecking order. He's already scored as many goals for Doncaster in nine games as he did for his former side in 17. Sure, it's only two goals but they've come in his last three home appearances. With this former side up next, he'll be chomping at the bit to make it three in four.
All the stats and odds for Doncaster vs Charlton
Doncaster to continue play-off charge
Both these sides are firmly in the play-off race. Doncaster look the more likely on paper with the fact they're only outside of them on goal difference with games in hand to boot. There is talk of the side having been ‘found out' after their recent dip though. Where Charlton are concerned, Nigel Adkins will be quietly confident of finding momentum and sneaking in. They did suffer a blow against Wimbledon though; Washington, who we mentioned will miss out, was forced off early doors in the draw with a hamstring injury. That could see Dillang Jaiyesimi come in; he scored his first goal of the season after coming off the subs bench in the same game. The Addicks won't carry the same threat without Washington though – he'd scored four in three prior to Saturday.
