Doncaster extended their winless run to four matches when they played out a goalless draw away at Fleetwood Town last weekend.
Gary McSheffrey is sure to feel that his side missed the opportunity to claim maximum points against a fellow relegation candidate who had not won any of their previous 12 games.
Nevertheless, a point secured in Lancashire means that Donny remain 23rd in the League One table and four points adrift of safety with seven games remaining.
One cause for concern that McSheffrey will have is that his team have failed to score in each of their last three league games. In fact, Doncaster have now failed to find the net in 19 league matches this season – only Championship outfit Peterborough United (20) have drawn a blank in more league fixtures across the EFL this season.
Doncaster have also failed to score in their last two meetings with Charlton, losing by an aggregate score of 5-0. Defeat on Saturday would see Donny lose three consecutive games against the Addicks for the first time since a run of four games back September 2008.
After a miserable run of six defeats and one draw between February 8 and March 12, Charlton have since claimed back-to-back home victories against Gillingham and Burton Albion without conceding.
A slender 1-0 success against the Gills was followed by a 2-0 win over the Brewers last weekend, with Conor Washington and Corey Blackett-Taylor both finding the net before half time.

Charlton will be confident of securing their third successive league win on Saturday against a Doncaster side who they comfortably beat 4-0 in the reverse fixture six months ago.
The Addicks are also unbeaten in each of their last four visits to the Keepmoat Stadium, including victories in each of their last two
