Charlton Athletic can neither be promoted or relegated from League One. Shrewsbury is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

Charlton Athletic form and stats

Charlton Athletic have played 22 League One games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 9-4-9 (wins-draws-losses). The Charlton manager Jackson might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Charlton Athletic enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Cambridge United's place. The match ended 2-0 with Blackett-Taylor and Washington scoring. Midfielder Morgan was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.34 (out of ten) in that game. Morgan served one assist, hit four key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Shrewsbury Town form and stats

There's been little loot from Shrewsbury Town's travels as they have only collected 16 points from 22 away games in the League One. Shrewsbury Town only have 3 wins to counter their 12 defeats and 7 draws. Shrewsbury Town seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Shrewsbury played 3-3 against Doncaster Rovers in their previous match. It looked so good for Shrewsbury Town vs Doncaster Rovers, but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 3-0 lead was turned into a 3-3 draw. Defender Pennington was the best team player with a rating of 7.83. Pennington won 13 of 15 duels.

A 2-3 defeat away at Sunderland before that.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Shrewsbury Town as they have only managed to score 17 times from 22 away games in the league. Shrewsbury have conceded 24 goals in these away matches.
