Backing an away win
Walsall have been struggling to find their best form of late; they are without a win in their last three games, with two draws and a loss. In comparison, Charlton Athletic have fared relatively better than Walsall; they've lost just once in their last six games, with three wins and two draws. It's important to note that Walsall play in League Two, while Charlton Athletic are a League One side. Moreover, Charlton Athletic have had Walsall's number in the past; they've won the last three encounters between these teams, with no losses in their last eight clashes. Taking everything into account, we are predicting a win for the visitors.
Going under 2.5 goals
Despite their good form, Charlton Athletic have not been a high-scoring side; they've scored one goal or less in four of their last five matches. It's worth noting that most of Charlton's games have been on the low-scoring side; as four of their last five games went below the 2.5 goal mark. Likewise, Walsall have had their fair share of low-scoring games; four of their last five matches saw less than three goals scored. With that in mind, this will likely be a low-scoring affair.

Can the cup reignite Walsall's form?
Walsall's early season form has just taken a little wobble of late; this game could be a good thing for them with the whole ‘underdog story' something that can create a spark. That said, they'll need more than a bit of atmosphere to overcome this Charlton side. If Charlton bring their A game, they win.
Walsall's form has gradually gotten worse over the course of their season; they started their season in style, with three consecutive wins in all competitions, but have no wins in three games since then. Michael Flynn's men will hope to get back to winning ways as they face Charlton Athletic; it'll be interesting to see if they can get to the next round.
Walsall Predicted lineup – Evans, Daniels, Clarke, Monthe, White, Kinsella, Comley, Knowles, Maher, Williams, Johnson
Charlton Athletic have had a fairly good record so far this season; in six matches, Ben Garner's men have three wins, two draws and a loss. Charlton will make the trip to the Bescot Stadium on Tuesday evening and they'll be expecting to book a place in the third round of this tournament.
Charlton Predicted lineup – Wollacott, Clare, Inniss, O'Connell, Clayden, Fraser, Dobson, Morgan, Rak-Sakyi, Stockley, Kirk
