Charlton Athletic are ready to welcome Birmingham City to The Valley on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Addicks are clearly on top, having won 16 and lost only 3 of the 28 games.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Charlton Athletic at home in recent games, and, though we cannot see a run starting here, we do think the Addicks will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
