Charlton Athletic will be looking to bounce back from their 2-1 loss against Preston North End when they step onto the pitch on Wednesday.
However, doing so won’t be the easiest of tasks, as they will face Fulham, who have gone into this round of fixtures in third place.

If the Addicks are unable to get the three points, it will mark five consecutive matches without a win, while a bit of extra distance from the relegation zone would likely be appreciated.
FFC has predicted the starting XI that Bowyer could utilise in order to make that happen, including three changes from the loss at Deepdale.
The defence’s main core is kept intact, with Dillon Phillips, Tom Lockyer, Adedeji Oshilaja and Naby Sarr all starting against Fulham, as they did during the loss to Preston.
Alfie Doughty could start this match on the bench, with Ben Purrington coming into the team. Bringing in the 23-year-old could provide the side with extra defensive solidity. He averages 1.5 tackles, 1.1 interceptions and 1.9 clearances per game, which outdoes the 20-year-old’s 0.6 tackles and 0.5 clearances while equalling his interceptions. Adam Matthews, meanwhile, could play on the opposite flank.

Ben Dempsey seems to have forced his way into Bowyer’s plans in recent times, after starting each of Charlton’s last three league games, and could be set to continue that run against Fulham.
In this XI, Darren Pratley remains in the team, while Albie Morgan replaces Jonny Williams to join them in the midfield three, which would see the academy graduate return to the starting lineup having not featured in it for the last two games.
Andre Green stays in the side after scoring against Preston, a moment that could prove to be monumental for him – especially given the timing.
Tomer Hemed has come on as a substitute in each of Charlton’s last three games, so Bowyer may be tempted to start the Israel international, with Josh Davison being used from the bench.
Meanwhile, Charlton fans reacted to a big moment in the game against Preston.
