Cardiff City are still on the search for a first win in the Championship, and next up, they host Charlton Athletic. Heading into this match, Cardiff are just above the relegation zone courtesy of goal difference, while Charlton are sixth. Charlton have a better run ahead of this encounter, and our prediction places them at a slight advantage as we back a double chance.

A -4 goal difference is what keeps Cardiff City outside the drop zone in the Championship. They are from their third defeat of the campaign, falling 1-0 at Bolton, the second time in three games that they failed to score.

There will be some hope in hosting this game, as Cardiff are unbeaten in three home league games, drawing in all.

Charlton are winless in their last four matches against Cardiff City; however, the last three ended in draws. The Addicks started their second season in the Championship on a high and will feel they can at least achieve a playoff slot.

That, though, will depend on how they handle matters in the coming rounds. Their league campaign started with three straight wins before they were caught out by Stoke City in a heavy defeat.

The visitors’ 0-0 draw with Portsmouth marked their fourth winless outing. Three of those were draws, and in the four matches, Charlton scored just once.

Our Cardiff vs Charlton Athletic Prediction

Promoted side Cardiff City is already finding it tough in the Championship just seven games down the line. The Welsh side is one of the two sides yet to win a match in the league so far. Charlton will look to capitalize on that as they seek a return to winning ways.

The Addicks have gone four matches without victory, a far cry from their three wins in the opening three games to start off the season. Our prediction for Cardiff City v Charlton Athletic is a double chance: Charlton Athletic or draw.
