Nobody likes to be on the losing side, especially so early into a new season. Bristol City and Charlton are no exception in this respect. Both teams are eager to improve from last term, leading us to expect an exciting affair at Ashton Gate.

Bristol City are relatively average in the art of goal-scoring these days. They scored a steady 14 goals in their previous ten matches, for an average of 1.4 per game. They simultaneously allowed their opponents 20 goals, or an average of two a game. Furthermore, they fought their way to zero clean sheets in this run.

Charlton are currently not the most scoring team in the Championship, as they only found the back of the net seven times in ten matches. This is an average of just 0.7 goals a game in which they conceded 11 times, an average of 1.1 per game. They managed four clean sheets in these.

Bristol City lost to 3-2 Charlton in their last encounter. This served as payback for the 2-1 win, which Bristol City dished out the match before that.
