Preston vs Charlton: match facts, form and head-to-head – 17 April 2027

Preston host Charlton in what looks to be a daunting test for the league’s bottom‑placed side. Sitting 23rd with just three points from one win and six defeats, Preston have struggled to find the net, managing only six goals while conceding 13. Charlton, meanwhile, sit comfortably in seventh place, having amassed 12 points from three victories, three draws and a single loss, and they sit on a modest +1 goal difference after scoring six and conceding seven. The two clubs have met only sparingly this season, but the gap in form is stark, and Preston will need to tighten up defensively if they hope to avoid another heavy setback against a Charlton side that has already proven resilient enough to pick up points against both sides of the table.
