Preview: Charlton Athletic vs. Bromley - prediction, team news, lineups

Sports Mole previews Tuesday's EFL Trophy clash between Charlton Athletic and Bromley, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Charlton Athletic and Bromley will go head-to-head in the 2024-25 EFL Trophy on Tuesday, with the hosts hoping to maintain their perfect start to the competition.

The visitors, currently bottom of the group with two points, can also reach second place in Group K if they secure a win.

Charlton's six-match unbeaten streak in competitive matches ended on Saturday with a 1-0 loss to Exeter City in a League One clash, leaving them 13th in the table, five points adrift of the top six.

However, the Addicks are flying in the EFL Trophy, having won 2-1 against Cambridge United and 3-0 against Chelsea U-21 in their opening two games of the competition, which leaves them top of Group K with six points.

Nathan Jones's side will hope they can bounce back from Saturday's defeat when they take on Bromley on Tuesday in what will be the first competitive meeting between both sides – the only previous meeting was a friendly match in 2016, which Charlton lost 2-1.

Charlton will be counting on their home form, which has seen them go unbeaten in their last four such games, winning two and drawing two.

Bromley, on the other hand, are heading into this clash on a four-match unbeaten streak with two wins and two draws, including a 1-1 stalemate with Cheltenham in League Two on Saturday despite going down to ten men.

The Ravens are 19th in League Two with 15 points after 14 matches, having won just one more league game since winning their opening two league matches.

Manager Andy Woodman was appointed to lead the team in 2021 after leaving his role as Arsenal's head of goalkeeping, and and he has done a fairly good job at the club after the victory in last season's playoff and the 2022 FA Trophy win.

However, he will hope that the Ravens can add to their two points in the EFL Trophy, a point tally they got after winning the penalty shoot-out following a 3-3 draw with Cambridge and a 3-2 defeat to Chelsea U-21.

SM words green background

We say: Charlton Athletic 2-1 Bromley

Bromley have shown character in a number of games recently, but we believe that Charlton might have too much for them, especially at home, and this is why we are predicting a narrow victory for the hosts, though we expect a tough fight from the visitors.
