If we have any hope of playoffs we need a minimum of eight points (and really targeting 10) from our four festive fixtures. Three of them really need to come against Burton.
I’ll go for a fairly comfortable but uninspiring 2-0 win, Stockton won’t score his trademark worldy against us this time.0 -
Oshilaja will score.
Hopefully 2-1 to us.0 -
If, and its a big IF, we have any hope of making the play offs this season then we need to win this game and by more than 2 clear goals to show we mean business. Teams "making a run" turn over teams who have lost 5 on the bounce and our "run" has to start NOW.
A comfortable 4-0 home win.

Another food bank collection today.0

3-1 to us, Alfie May to score to break his one match goal drought, Burton goal is a yard wide but the officials give it to continue our recent trend.0

They are shit beyond all shit , yet on the 1% chance of them nicking something I’m sure we can find out that they got a draw at someone in the top 6 so aren’t that bad a side , fuck off you excusing lame cnuts , as for Burton no idea about them

4-1.0

I see that they are on a losing run and that we are unbeaten in 6.
Knowing us we’ll give them a leg up.

I’m with Seth on this one
”a must win”1 -
If we don't win this one we can give up any hope of the play offs.0

According to Louis Mendez, Charlton games have averaged 3.05 goals a game, the most in this league0

I think “must wins” are reserved for the matches where, if we don’t win, we are mathematically unable to get promoted/make playoffs/avoid relegation.AndyG said:I’m with Seth on this one
”a must win”But I would say that we need to win this match or else, whilst still mathematically possible, the playoffs will be a very remote possibility.0 -
Today I think is one of those matches where we should throw caution to the wind. We know it’s unlikely we will keep a clean sheet but we should be able to outscore them0

And Burton have only scored 1 league goal since 24 October so if we can’t beat themse9addick said:

we don’t deserve the play offs…1 -
4-1 for me. The lads know what they need to do to stay in it and of late while not spectacular, we’ve proven we have goals in us and have been a bit better at the back eg Hector…0

We just have to remember not to be home to Dr Cockup!
When I see an opposition teams stats "LLLLL" it sets off a nervous Charlton tick but I surpress that with some pretty heavy cough medication today and predict a 3-1 victory, the only certainty is Stockton scoring for them as our defence switches off whilst daydreaming who their secret Santa is.

If that starting 11 can't beat a team who have just lost 5 on the trot then there is no hope of reaching the play offsBriston_Addick said:

Problem is then all games just become run of the mill until you get to 10 games to go & have to win all 10 just to scrape 6th..... assuming 6th 7th & 8th lose all 10 into the bargain.se9addick said:

You have to start somewhere and playing a team with 5 straight defeats is not a bad place to start !!!
So, yes, today is a "must win" game.2 -
Last FIVE games WDDWDD?JamesSeed said:Ok here goes.LAST FIVE GAMES:
Charlton: WDDWDD
Burton: LLLLL
So if that pattern confines it’s a W for us and an L for them. Yes!
We’ve beaten Burton at home twice in a row at home.If we lose tomorrow any sliver of hope we had of reaching the playoffs will, in my mind, be gone, because if we can’t beat managerless Burton at home the chances of going on the sort of winning run we need are minuscule.I’m again hoping to see Watson starting over Fraser (probably won’t happen), and Kanu starting over Tedić (50/50 chance).
Would love to see a good strong performance to raise the Christmas spirits at least.Charlton Athletic possible starting lineup:Maynard-Brewer; T. Watson, Hector, Thomas, Edun; Fraser, Dobson, Campbell; May, Blackett-Taylor, Kanu (but probably Tedić)
Burton Albion possible starting lineup:
Crocombe; Caprice, Hughes, Sweeney, Seddon; Harper, Powell; Baah, Oshilaja, Bennett; StocktonLineups borrowed and adapted from:
If that's the case I would play a back four of
Watson, Hector, Jones, Thomas and Edun and hope no-one was counting...... 🥳
