Stats for this game
Matchup Preston VS Charlton
Preston carry the stronger league direction
Preston won 2–1 away at Charlton on 11 April 2026 and 2–0 at home on 4 October 2025. They also won 2–1 at home on 18 January 2020 and 1–0 away on 3 November 2019. Charlton supplied a 1–0 home victory on 29 August 2026. These Championship scorelines give Preston a measured edge, while Charlton’s home result keeps a counterpoint in the comparison. The league direction is clear without creating a permanent order between the clubs.
The cup result remains separate
Preston won 2–1 at home in the FA Cup on 14 January 2025. That result adds a distinct competition marker, but the Championship meetings provide the main frame for this matchup. A further league chapter can alter the emphasis without erasing the earlier scores. The enduring question is whether Charlton can add another response, whether Preston can reinforce their league direction, or whether the clubs share the points.
