Burnley vs Charlton (13 October 2026, Championship): match facts, form and head-to-head

Burnley will host Charlton in what promises to be a stark contrast of fortunes, with the Lancashire side languishing in 24th place on just three points from seven games – all draws and defeats, a meagre 8‑16 goal return – while the visitors sit comfortably in seventh, having amassed 12 points from three wins, three draws and a single loss and boasting a positive 6‑7 goal difference. The gap in the table underscores the urgency for Burnley to snap their winless streak and claw back into the safety zone, whereas Charlton will be looking to consolidate their push for a top‑half finish. Historically the two clubs have met sparingly this season, but the recent form suggests a likely advantage for the higher‑placed side. A point for Burnley could prove vital, yet Charlton’s balanced record indicates they have the firepower to claim all three points at Turf Moor.
