Millwall vs Charlton Athletic

Millwall take on Charlton Athletic at The Den on Saturday 24 January 2026 (12:30 kick-off) in the The Championship. This preview keeps the focus on the occasion, the importance of the points, and the supporter experience around the fixture. In the Championship, League 1 and League 2, the table can change quickly, and teams often move between good and bad spells across the year, which makes every match feel like it carries a clear consequence. For Millwall, this is a chance to deliver a performance that matches the expectations that come with playing at The Den, whether the club is chasing the top end of the table, trying to stay in touch with the play-offs, or simply aiming to build consistency. Charlton Athletic will arrive with their own goals and pressures, and the tone of the match can change depending on who handles the early moments, who stays calm when the game tightens, and who takes their chances when they appear. EFL football is popular because it is not scripted: momentum can swing, the atmosphere can change in minutes, and the outcome often stays in doubt until late on. For fans attending, it helps to plan travel in advance and arrive with time to spare, because queues and access vary by ground and by fixture. Tickets should always be bought through official club channels or trusted partners. For those not inside the stadium, following along via live coverage, live scores, highlights, or watching with other supporters in a local venue still gives you the shared matchday feeling from first whistle to full time.
