Goal Statistics

An absolutely awful PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Sheffield Wednesday fans, as should a 18 Championship games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.

Goals have been a problem for Charlton Athletic of late. It has been 11 Championship matches since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.4 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Saturday afternoon against Sheffield Wednesday.
