Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It may be an over exaggeration to say that we expect Henrik Pedersen and Nathan Jones to batten down the hatches here, but we do not expect a flood of goals as Sheff Wed and Charlton go head-to-head. The statistics belowpoint towards there being under 2.5 goals (i.e. 2 goals of fewer in total), and we think that's a good shout here. With best odds of 1.65 available on under 2.5 goals and nothing too eyecatching in the full time result market, that's the bet we recommend.

Goal Statistics

A truly dismal PG of just 0.9 should cause concerns for Sheffield Wednesday fans, as should a 20 Championship matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.

Goals have been an issue for Charlton Athletic of late. It has been 13 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.
