Charlton and Brentford haven’t met at the Valley in the Championship since October 2015, with the Bees winning 3-0.
Brentford are looking to secure consecutive away league wins at Charlton for the first time.
Charlton have won eight points from their opening four league games in each of their last three appearances in the second tier but went on to be relegated in their previous campaign at this level in 2015-16.
Brentford registered just 29.5% possession and attempted only five shots against Leeds in midweek; both their lowest totals in a Championship game since getting promoted in 2014.
Lyle Taylor, who has netted four goals from seven shots on target this season, has scored 26 league and play-off goals since August 2018; 12 more than any other Charlton player.
Brentford have scored a league-low two goals in 2019-20; with two goals from their opening four league games their lowest total at this level since 1947-48.

In meetings between Stoke City and Leeds United at Stoke, there hasn’t been a goalless draw in the last 25 games in all competitions since a 0-0 stalemate in October 1966.
Leeds have lost three of their last four league matches against Stoke (W1 D0 L3), losing 1-2 at the Bet365 Stadium last season.
Stoke, who are now winless in 10 league games (P10 W0 D5 L5), haven’t suffered a longer such run outside of the top-flight since a 16-match streak without victory between September and December 2002.
Leeds are looking to win three straight away games in the Championship for the first time in 2019, last doing so against Sheffield United, Bolton and Aston Villa in December 2018.
Stoke (28) and Leeds (30) have faced the fewest shots in the Championship so far this season, though the Potters have conceded 10 times, and the Whites just twice. Indeed, the fortunes of the two clubs couldn’t be more contrasting, with the away side sitting top and the home side sitting bottom of the division after four matches.
Against Brentford last time out, Leeds striker Eddie Nketiah became just the 14th different Whites player to score in his first two appearances for the club – should he score against Stoke, Nketiah will be the first player since Frank Fidler in 1951 to score in his first three appearances for Leeds United.
