Wycombe Wanderers vs Charlton Athletic
Sunday 11th May 2025 (k.o. 6.30pm)
Adams Park
Sky Bet League One Play-Off Semi-Final First Leg
Referee: Farai Hallam
Adams Park plays host to the first leg of the Sky Bet League One play-offs on Sunday evening, with Wycombe and Charlton going head-to-head battling to build an advantage to take into the second leg at the Valley four days later.
The Addicks held the upper hand in the two league meetings, winning in London just after Christmas and again at Adams Park just three weeks ago.
But these two legs are a new opportunity for the Chairboys to keep alive their promotion hopes at the end of a record-breaking year in which they accumulated 84 points, and bring Championship football back to the town five years after the pandemic robbed the community of supporting their side in the second tier.
Tickets remain available on general sale as the club looks to welcome a bumper crowd to get behind the team and finish the season in style.
