An important duel in the bottom section of the Championship, with both Hull City and Charlton Athletic experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 21st and the visitors in 22nd place.

Hull City form and stats

6-3-10 (win-draw-lost) are the Championship numbers at home for Hull City so far this season. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in eleven attempts. Hull City are slowly digging their own grave here at KCOM Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Birmingham City match.

No payout for Hull City in their previous match, an away game at Stoke City that ended in defeat 1-5. Ahead of that match, Hull City lost 0-4 at home to Leeds United.

As you see from the result above, Hull City suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

This is expected to be a close game, with Hull City perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Hull City as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Hull City has won seven of these, drawn one and lost five.

The manager G. McCann will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Birmingham City in only four days.

The Hull City fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 27 in 19 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 33 goals have been conceded.

Charlton Athletic form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Charlton Athletic so far with only 13 points returning home. The records show 3-4-11 (win-draw-lose). It's a growing despair in Charlton Athletic as they have recorded three consecutive losses. Charlton Athletic has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Charlton Athletic aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 273 league minutes without a goal. G. Lapslie was the last player to find the net.

Charlton Athletic failed to get anything from their last game, a Championship home match vs Middlesbrough (placed 19th) that ended with defeat 0-1. Preceding that game, the 0-4 loss visiting Huddersfield Town's place.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Charlton Athletic in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Charlton Athletic, one draw and three defeats.

After this away game Charlton Athletic return home for a Championship game against Queens Park Rangers. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Charlton Athletic have scored 19 goals in 18 league games away. Charlton Athletic struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 31 goals conceded from these games.
