Round 27 of the Championship presents us with an interesting matchup at the bottom between Charlton Athletic and Sheffield United. The Addicks sit 19th, but a win here can put them on the same points as The Blades in 16th. See our best bet in this match prediction below.

Charlton just took another disappointing loss with the 5-1 thrashing at Chelsea's hands in the FA Cup. But to be fair, that was always a game they were going to lose. Still, the defeat now sees Charlton winless in their last five games. The Addicks have now dropped from 5th place in October to 19th today after seven defeats in their last 11 Championship games.

However, they've somewhat impressed in their last two, walking away with back-to-back draws against league leaders Coventry and lately, Blackburn. However, their opponents on Saturday might not be so forgiving. Sheffield took a disappointing 4-3 defeat in the FA Cup, but has won three of their last four league games.

They beat Birmingham, Stoke, and lately, Leicester 3-1 in their latest Championship game. The Blades might be poised to get their revenge after losing 1-0 to Charlton earlier this season. But with the home side locked in a relegation battle, they may just muster enough to get the double on Sheffield.

Our Charlton Athletic vs Sheffield United Prediction

With Charlton hovering dangerously above the relegation zone, there's no point playing for a goalless draw at home. We're equally expecting goals from Sheffield, who are only eight points above the relegation zone with half the season still to play.

But what's most convincing from Sheffield’s end is the sheer number of goals scored in recent games. They've not only found the net in their last five games, but netted 14 in that span! They might even set the pace with early goals, which Charlton must respond to. Hence, our Charlton Athletic vs Sheffield United prediction is Both Teams To Score - Yes.
