Charlton Vs Derby Preview
Having defied the Championship relegation odds last season, Charlton will be aiming to push on this time around. The Addicks fast start to the 2025-26 campaign helped keep their heads above water and manager Nathan Jones has added a number of experienced players at this level over the summer.
In the EFL Cup last weekend, the south Londoners cruised to a comfortable 3-1 win at Cheltenham. Matt Gooden, Sonny Carey and Tyreece Campbell all got on the scoresheet at the EV Charger Points Stadium.
As for Derby, a Sammie Szmodics stunner wasn’t enough as the Rams lost to Championship newbies Lincoln at Pride Park. Manager John Eustace will want to see a vastly improved performance at the Valley after what has been a relative quiet transfer window so far.

Charlton Vs Derby Prediction
Confidence will be high in the Charlton camp after they got their 2026-27 campaign to a fine start with a 3-1 win over Cheltenham in the EFL Cup. On the other hand, morale has taken a slight hit at Derby having lost at home to Lincoln.
However, we are expecting a tight and cagey affair in south London and we are going to sit on the fence and call a score draw.
