Settled results only — every published pick is recorded win or lose. Full track record →
Based on at least 20 settled predictions.2 published markets
Charlton Athletic W have conceded ten goals in their four league matches, an average of 2.5 per game, and have failed to keep a clean sheet all season. Brighton W have also conceded in all four of their league outings, averaging 1.5 goals against per match. While both teams have had low-scoring attacking outputs in recent league games, Charlton's defensive vulnerability and the recent 4-0 meeting between these sides indicate that a minimum of two goals is well supported, whereas reaching three goals remains less reliable given Charlton has scored only once in four league fixtures.
