Charlton still need a point to ensure Championship survival
Victory at The Valley would keep Hull firmly in the playoff hunt
Recommended bet: Over 2.5 goals
Hull look set to battle it out with Wrexham for the last place in the Championship play-offs and they will be confident they can end a five-match winless run at struggling Charlton on Saturday.
The Addicks need a point to ensure they will remain in the second tier next season, but they have lost their last four matches at The Valley and are desperate to get over the line having failed to win any of their last seven games.

Prediction
Charlton and Hull both need the points when they meet at The Valley on Saturday, but for different reasons, and that could ensure a goal-filled lunchtime clash in south-east London.
The Addicks know a point from their final two games — they face a trip to Swansea next week — will be enough to ensure they stay in the Championship, but Nathan Jones’s side have failed to win any of their last seven games and nerves are beginning to show.
They have lost their last three home matches against Bristol City, Preston and Ipswich by a 2-1 scoreline and the visiting Tigers can be expected to attack against a team who have scored in 19 of their last 23 league games.
A 2-2 draw against Leicester was enough to send the Foxes down on Tuesday and Hull need to be positive as they aim to beat Wrexham to sixth spot and a place in the play-offs.
They have stumbled in recent weeks, drawing four of their last five games, so the encouragement is there to get back to winning ways and that should lead to a game with a few goals.
