West Brom – Charlton

West Brom’s home draw with Charlton left the Baggies perched in fourth place with 14 points from seven games, their record of four wins, two draws and a single loss balanced by a modest 10‑7 goal difference. Charlton, meanwhile, moved up to seventh, gathering 12 points after three victories, three stalemates and one defeat, but their defensive frailties were evident as they slipped to a negative 1‑goal differential, having conceded seven while scoring six. The match itself mirrored the season’s head‑to‑head trend, ending 1‑1 and preserving the lone draw that has defined their encounters so far. Both sides now head into the next round of fixtures needing a win to solidify their positions in the tight upper half of the table.
