The home side enters this season after placing 4th last season and gaining promotion. They are notably stronger at home, with a record of 13 wins and 2 draws at The Valley out of their last 30 matches, compared to 7 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses when playing away. They arrive at this fixture following a home victory against Leyton Orient (1-0). Charlton has won 9 and drawn 1 of their last 10 home matches across all competitions, frequently finding the back of the net in these games. In 15 contests, they have conceded the first goal four times, managing to turn it around only once. It’s worth noting that in the last 20 home matches in all competitions, they conceded five of their 12 goals late in the match (76′ to 90′).
Charlton Athletic come into this match on the back of a friendly win against Southend (0-3). The team is expected to adopt a 4-3-3 formation, using Josh Edwards and Kayne Ramsay to create width and depth. Nathan Jones will likely start Tyreece Campbell, Daniel Kanu, and Olaofe, with all players available for selection.
Team analysis: Watford
This will be Watford’s first match of the season, having finished last in the previous edition in 14th place. They are particularly reliant on home advantage, struggling as visitors with a record of 3 wins, 3 draws, and 9 losses away from home, scoring 15 goals and conceding 22 in those fixtures. Conversely, at home, they have recorded 5 wins, 3 draws, and 7 losses. Their last match ended in a draw against Leyton Orient (1-1) in a friendly. In their last 10 games as visitors, Watford has managed 2 wins, 2 draws, and 6 losses. Their defensive stability has been questionable, conceding goals in 7 of their last 10 matches, while their attack has performed consistently, scoring in 8 of those games. Of note, they have conceded the first goal in 6 of their last 15 matches and have yet to turn a match around when doing so.
The team enters this match with momentum following a 1-0 victory in a friendly against Deportivo La Coruña. Paulo Pezzolano’s side is likely to line up in a 4-3-3 formation, focusing on quick transitions. The main threats to opposing defences will be Rocco Vata, Luca Kjerrumgaard, and Tom Ine. Key midfielder Imbân Louza will be crucial in dictating the pace of play. All players are fit for this encounter.
