Nathan Jones's side finished 19th in the league last campaign and just six points off the relegation zone but they've looked solid this time out.

Charlton, who were promoted from League One in 2025, are unbeaten in six of their first seven outings (won three, drawn three) to leave them sixth in the Championship and just two points off league leaders West Ham.

Jones will be hoping his side can continue their fine form and given the fact that Cardiff are still searching for their first league win, Charlton will fancy their chances of securing another victory.

Cardiff were promoted from League One last campaign but they've struggled in the second flight with Brian Barry-Murphy's side losing three and drawing four of their seven games to leave them one spot above the relegation zone.

The Bluebirds are among the favourites to be relegated this season and Barry-Murphy will be well aware that Cardiff need to turn their form around soon if they are to avoid a major slump.
