The Fan Zone

Angela Smith (KnotFM): Stoke are coming into this game on the back of two straight defeats, but coming up against a previous manager may add some spice to the contest. Stoke should get back to winning with the defence they have and the backing of the home fans in a closely fought game although Charlton will be smarting from Saturday's defeat.

I expect a couple of changes to the Stoke side as it's the second game of a busy eight days

Prediction: 2-1

Stuart Court (Cafc Facts and Stats): A first half on Saturday to forget for Charlton where they conceded 5 first half goals in a game for the first time in over 42 years.

A trip to Stoke is where they will look to bounce back and the return of James Bree is a much needed one. Personally i would go back to the back 5 that started v Wrexham where both wing backs had good games until Campbell was switched to go up front midway through the second half.

A point would be a good one for Charlton in a tough week already for them.

Prediction: 1-1
