Derby County will host Charlton Athletic at the Pride Park Stadium on Tuesday in another round of the 2025-26 EFL Championship campaign. The hosts will remain keen to get a win and push higher up the league table after what has been a slow start to the season.
Derby put up another lackluster performance but managed to come away with a point in a 1-1 draw against Wrexham last time out. The draw saw the Rams move a single place above the drop zone and will leave them hoping to get what would be only their second win of the season this midweek.
Charlton, on the other hand, have had an impressive return to life in the second division of English football after five years spent in League One, winning three and drawing two of their opening seven games of the season.
Trending
The visitors, who put up a special performance in their last outing when they defeated Blackburn 3-0 at home, now sit in seventh place in the league and will be in high spirits when they make the trip to Derby this midweek.
