Charlton Athletic is set to face Ipswich Town in a pivotal Championship match at The Valley. Currently, Charlton sits six points above the relegation zone and a victory would significantly bolster their chances of avoiding relegation. If Oxford United loses to Wrexham, Charlton would need just a draw to ensure safety. Ipswich, on the other hand, is in a strong position for promotion but could be overtaken by Millwall or Southampton if they do not secure a win. Historically, Charlton has had the upper hand recently, winning their last encounter 3-0, and they are aiming to achieve a league double over Ipswich for the first time in over two decades. However, Ipswich has struggled against newly promoted teams this season, winning only once in five attempts, which adds pressure to their campaign. Both teams are eager for points as they navigate their respective battles at opposite ends of the table.
