Prediction: 3-1
Charlton
Blackpool will look to extend their winning run in League One to four games when they face Charlton Athletic on Saturday afternoon. As the Seasiders suffered elimination in the FA Cup, they will be fully focused on the league in the remainder of the season. Goalkeeper Daniel Grimshaw remains on the sidelines with injury, with fellow shot-stopper Richard O’Donnell likely to keep his place between the sticks.
The Red Robins, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing six of their last seven league matches and given Blackpool’s fine home record, we believe that punters from all around the world can find value in betting on the promotion-chasing hosts. To make things even more difficult for the capital club, important midfielder Tayo Edun misses Saturday’s game through suspension. Michael Appleton is likely to stick to the 3-5-2 formation, with Ladapo and May up front.
Highlighted Player (Chris Maxwell):
Chris Maxwell is a Welsh goalkeeper who was born in St Asaph on July 30, 1990. Maxwell began his youth career at Penrhyn Bay (1998-2000) and in 2000 he moved to Wrexham. The 188-cm-tall shoot-stopper made his first-team debut for Wrexham at the age of 18 and he played 76 league games for the club from 2008 to 2012.
During the 2008/2009 season he spent six months on loan at Welsh club Connah’s Quay Nomads and in 2012 he joined Fleetwood Town. Chris Maxwell made 110 appearances in the league for the Trawlermen and on May 16, 2016 he signed a three-year deal with Championship side Preston North End. You should know that he managed to keep clean sheets in 38 appearances for the Lilywhites in the 2016/2017 Championship campaign.
Due to his dual citizenship, Maxwell is capable of representing both Wales and Scotland at senior level, but he played for the Dragons at youth level, being capped for the U21 team 16 times.
Highlighted Team (Charlton):
Charlton Athletic are yet another capital club that will compete in the 2019/2020 Championship season. Founded back in 1905, the Red Robins welcome their opponents at the Valley, the stadium which can hold up to 28,111 spectators. Charlton Athletic wear red shirts and white shorts when playing on home soil, whereas black is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Winning of the 1946/1947 FA Cup trophy is considered the club’s biggest success. The Red Robins defeated Burnley 1-0 in the title game, with Chris Duffy scoring the winner for Jimmy Seed’s charges in extra-time.
Fellow capital clubs Crystal Palace and Millwall are regarded as Charlton’s fiercest rivals, whilst Samuel Bartram, who made 579 appearances for the club is one of the most famous footballers who played for the Valley outfit. The club based in London will compete in the English second tier in the 2019/2020 season following a three-year absence.
