FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Charlton Ath. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Addicks will at least gain a draw. Score draw

Charlton Ath. Failed to win in previous 5 home matches.
Wigan Ath. Undefeated in last 5 away games.
