Goal Statistics

Birmingham City have been steady in front of goal of late, finding the net in 6 consecutive Championship matches. Their PG of 1.8 against Charlton Athletic on Saturday suggests that run is likely to continue.

A truly dreadful PG of just 0.8 should cause concerns for Charlton Athletic fans, as should a 7 Championship games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
