This Saturday’s meeting between Brighton & Hove Albion and Charlton Athletic will be the 55th in total.
The Seagulls just shade the head-to-head record with 22 victories to Charlton’s 21, with the Addicks most recently coming out on top in a narrow 3-2 Boxing Day victory earlier in the season.
Dale Stephens was in Charlton’s starting line-up on that occasion before completing his move to Albion in January.

The previous encounter at the Amex ended in a frustrating goalless draw last season, despite a dominant Albion performance with both Gordon Greer and Vicente hitting the woodwork in stoppage time.
*
One of the most memorable meetings in recent years came in the 2010/11 League One title-winning campaign, with Albion winning 4-0 at The Valley thanks to strikes from Inigo Calderon, Glenn Murray, Kazenga LuaLua and Matt Sparrow.
*
Meanwhile, the first-ever match between the two sides came back on 22nd October 1921, with Charlton coming out on top in a 1-0 victory.
