da 888casino： Charlton sealed third spot with their 4-0 trouncing of Rochdale on the final day of the season last weekend and will now face sixth-placed Doncaster Rovers in the play-offs, with promotion to the Championship at stake.
The Addicks enter the weekend’s fixture as the league’s form team and will be full of confidence when they walk out onto the turf at The Valley, although Donny boss Grant McCann has been foolish to suggest that Charlton’s spectacular run will matter little in the play-offs.
Will this underestimation come back to bite him and his side?
What did he say?
Well, speaking to Doncaster Free Press this week, McCann said:
“Momentum is a good thing and it can be used in any way you want, but I don’t think it matters when you come into the play-offs.
“It’s two games over two legs and it comes down to whoever fancies it, whoever is good enough or whoever is better on the day is going to win it.”
Tempting fate
Lee Bowyer’s side have lost just once in their last 10, scoring a total of 10 goals in their last three – a run of results that puts them top of the league form-wise.

The Charlton boss has repeatedly stressed the importance of players chipping in with goals from all over the pitch this term and has got exactly what he asked for in recent weeks, with Josh Cullen, Krystian Bielik and Joe Aribo all getting on the scoresheet.
The SE7 outfit seem to be running at full throttle going into the biggest fixture of their season so far and McCann’s suggestion that this doesn’t matter is nonsense.
Of course, anything can happen in a one off tie, but Charlton have been brushing their opponents aside with ease of late and McCann would be foolish to count on momentum going out the window at The Valley this weekend, otherwise he runs the risk of his side suffering a similar fate to the likes of Rochdale, Scunthorpe and Gillingham.
