MATCH PREVIEW | Birmingham City v Charlton

Karen Hills’ side returned to winning ways last Sunday after recording an impressive 1-0 win against Southampton at The Valley, Beth Roe's goal inside six minutes sealed the Addicks' victory in SE7. 

Last Sunday's win see's the Addicks stay fifth in the Barclays Women's Championship standings five points off second-placed London City Lionesses with two games in hand. 

Charlton's next test will come on Sunday, March 12th (KO 2 PM) against in-form Birmingham City at St Andrew's.

Daren Carter's side heads into Sunday's proceedings off the back of a 2-1 victory over Blackburn Rovers last weekend.  Birmingham came from behind to clinch the victory thanks to goals from Siobhan Wilson and Lucy Quinn. 

City's recent impressive run of three wins recorded from a possible four from across all competitions sees them sit 4th in the Championship standings, level on points with Charlton and one point afar from Southampton who sit in 3rd. 

The last matchup between these two sides was in the fifth round of the Vitality Women’s FA Cup a fortnight ago.

After an evenly contested 90 minutes between the two sides, the tie headed into extra time and Ashley Hodson’s 101-minute goal sent Birmingham into the quarter-finals of the competition.

The last Championship match between them was back in September 2022, which saw Charlton record all three points in a comfortable 3-0 victory, after Ella Rutherford and Angela Addison’s first-half goals and City’s goalkeeper Lucy Thomas’ own goal saw Charlton take the win in SE7.
