Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

There's 76% chance of Charlton and Birmingham 3 goals or less combined during this Championship match according to our predictive algorithm and, in the absense of a strong favourite in the win draw win market, we think that's a great tip here. Our calculations are made based on latest form, historical head-to-head (H2H) statistics and the view of the betting market, and you can back it at 1.29.
