The Addicks have struggled to convert possession into consistent attacking opportunities, averaging just 0.9 goals per match across their opening eight Championship fixtures.

The Robins beat Crystal Palace 2-0 in a behind-closed-doors friendly on 3 October, following their 1-0 Championship victory over Watford before the break.
Several players have returned to contention:
- Brian De Keersmaecker: Fully recovered and available for selection, potentially making his debut.

- Lorent Tolaj: Has made encouraging progress in training and is available.
- Noah Eile: Fit and cleared for selection.
