Charlton Athletic take on Sheffield Wednesday on matchday 10 of the Championship on Saturday. Both sides are languishing in the bottom half of the points table.
Nathan Jones' Charlton are fresh off a 2-0 defeat at Preston North End two weeks ago. Following a goalless first period at Deepdale, Preston broke the deadlock through Thierry Small midway through the second half before Daniel Jebbison doubled their advantage 10 minutes from time.
The defeat keeps the Addicks 13th in the standings, with 12 points from nine games, winning three.
Meanwhile, Henrik Pederson's Sheffield are reeling off a 5-0 home shellacking at the hands of Coventry City just before the international break. A Brandon Thomas-Asante brace was followed by a Haji Wright as Coventry led 3-0 at the break.

The visitors didn't ease their onslaught after the break, with Ellis Simms and Tatsuhiro Sakamoto also getting on the scoresheet, ending the Owls' three-game unbeaten streak.
Pederson's side remain in the penultimate spot in the points table, with six points from nine games, winning one, three points clear of rock-bottom Sheffield United.

Charlton Athletic vs Sheffield Wednesday prediction
The two sides have struggled this campaign, especially Sheffield, who are looking like one of the prime contenders to go down, with their recent mini-resurgence ending with a heavy home defeat.
Sheffield, though, hold a slender head-to-head advantage in the rivalry and have dominated recent meetings with the Addicks. Although they have had a forgettable campaign, only one of Sheffield's six defeats across competitions this season have come on the road.
Hence, despite the Owls' overall struggles this campaign, considering their recent dominance in the fixture, expect the spoils to be shared.
