The second leg of the League One play-off semi-final between Charlton Athletic and Wycombe Wanderers takes place on 15 May 2025. Kick-off is set for 21:00 CEST in Italia, Germania, Francia e Spagna, e 20:00 BST in the UK. After a goalless draw in the first meeting at Adams Park, both sides know that The Valley could be the gateway to Wembley Stadium.
This tie has everything riding on it: momentum, pride and a chance to secure promotion via the play-off final. With home advantage and a strong record against Wycombe, Charlton will be confident, while Wycombe will aim to spoil the party and reach the showpiece themselves.
Come si presentano le due squadre?
Charlton Athletic arrive buoyed by an unbeaten home run against Wycombe Wanderers in recent meetings, and the locals will hope to capitalise on familiar surroundings. The Addicks have shown resilience throughout the season, grinding out results when needed, and their fans will be eager to witness a crucial breakthrough.
Wycombe Wanderers, on the other hand, were disciplined in the first leg and proved tough to break down. Confidence is high after sealing a clean sheet at home, but they must now demonstrate greater attacking threat on the road. A compact defensive display and lightning counter-attacks could be their key to success at The Valley.
La nostra previsione
Given the goalless stalemate in the first leg and Charlton’s strong head-to-head record, we’re leaning towards a vittoria in casa. The Valley crowd should spur the hosts on, and we expect Charlton to edge this tie by finding the net against a resolute Wycombe defence.
That said, Wycombe’s defensive discipline means this could remain tight deep into the second half. A low-scoring affair seems most likely, so backing both teams not to score might be a savvy secondary option.
