The Championship just about had it all last year. Scintillating football, an exciting promotion push, spies, pitch invasions and never-ending struggles for some.
That all bodes well for a stellar 2019/20 as the likes of Leeds, Derby and a host of other big names battle it out again for a place in the Premier League.
It’s a league we love here at thatsagoal and our tipsters are always on hand to bring you the very best odds and offers.
Below you’ll find our complete Championship betting guide, featuring all the latest odds as the season goes on.
With 24 teams doing battle over a grueling 46 game season, it is sometimes the survival of the fittest and last season it was Norwich City who won the second tier, from Sheffield United who snatched second place from Leeds. Aston Villa made up for last season’s play-off final disappointment by winning the Wembley showpiece against Derby County.
Sky Bet Championship Winner Odds 2019/20
- Leeds United – 19/20

English Championship Predictions – Winner
It looks set to be a very open title-race this season in the Championship, with questions over the majority of sides at the top. Cardiff and Huddersfield might need a season or two to recalibrate and adjust back to life in the second tier whilst Leeds should be up there. However, FULHAM have kept the majority of their squad, and there is certainly enough talent to return to the Premier League at the first time of asking.
Keeping hold of Aleksandar Mitrovic was a significant statement of intent, and if Tom Cairney can recapture the form of 2017-18, then he could make all the difference this campaign. They haven’t done much in the way of recruitment, although the addition of Ivan Cavaleiro is a significant one.
Scott Parker is untested in this arena, but he certainly looks the part, and the former midfielder did help Fulham tighten up towards the end of last season. The Cottagers conceded just a single goal in their last four PL matches, and if they can keep things as secure this season, they could be difficult to beat.
It won’t be easy this season, and I can’t foresee any side running away with the title, but Fulham look the strongest of the title contenders. As long as last season hasn’t taken too much out of them, they should be able to start quickly, and Parker’s men look a far more reliable prospect than the majority of the frontrunners.
Championship Winners – Fulham – 8/1 with William Hill.
Championship Relegation Odds 2019/20
- Luton – 1/7
- Barnsley – 2/5
- Wigan – 6/4
- Charlton – 2/1
- Birmingham – 2/1
- Derby – 11/4
- Huddersfield – 8/1
- Stoke – 12/1
- Middlesbrough – 20/1
- Sheffield Wednesday – 33/1
- Hull -40/1
At the start of the season, CHarlton were the 9/4 favourites to be relegated and they’re still bang in trouble in what is a close betting heat. Luton look down and out and they were as big as 14/1 in the Championship relegation odds before the 2019/20 season kicked off.
Hull were one of our pre-season betting tips to be relegated but they are having a great geason are are now as big as 40/1 to be relegated to League One.
It is always an ultra-competitive market when looking at the Sky Bet Championship relegation odds and this season is no different. The newly-promoted sides are at the top of the market but it remains to be seen how well they perform in the second tier.
Championship Relegation Predictions 2019/20
There are a fair few contenders on the list when it comes to relegation from the Championship. Wigan are likely to be in the bottom eight once again whilst Pep Clotet could struggle at St.Andrews. I do think Barnsley will be fine, whilst there’s a decent spirit about Charlton (despite off-the-field issues).
HULL CITY haven’t lost many of their key men yet, although Jarred Bowen is unlikely to be at the club by mid-August. Crucially, they have lost Nigel Adkins. ‘Mr. Positivity’ packed his bags this summer, and will be sorely missed. He was responsible for Hull’s overachieving last season, and their home form was absolutely key.
Grant McCann didn’t have a good time at Peterborough, but after a very decent season at Doncaster, the Humberside club have taken a punt on the Northern Irishman. Whether Tom Eaves can make the step up remains to be seen, whilst Kamil Grosicki’s performances will depend on how committed to the cause he is.
I do think they have some quality players, but I think the loss of Adkins is significant, and I think they might struggle this time around.
Championship Relegation – Hull City – 5/1 with Bet Victor.
Sky Bet Championship Promotion Odds 2019/20
- Leeds – 1/5
- West Brom – 4/9
- Brentford – 5/6
- Fulham – 13/8
- Nottingham Forest – 9/2
- Bristol City – 10/1
- Preston – 12/1
- Sheffield Wednesday 12/1
- Millwall 12/1
- Swansea – 14/1
At the start of the season, the promotion picture looked like this:
Sky Bet Championship Promotion Predictions 2019/20
Having covered STOKE CITY games last season, I can assure you that there was very little to celebrate at the bet365, however, things look a little rosier this time around.
Nathan Jones has been given time to acclimatise to his new surroundings, and he’s made a number of signings this summer. Although there is still a bit of deadwood in the squad, the additions of Tommy Smith, Liam Lindsay and Adam Davies will help tighten up the back-line whilst Nick Powell will add some much-needed x-factor IF he can stay fit. Lee Gregory will chase anything that moves, whilst Jordan Cousins is an excellent squad player.
Jones was excellent at Luton, and his intensity in post-match interviews obviously transmits to the players. The potential conversion of James McClean to left-back is an interesting move, and with Tom Edwards on the opposite flank, they should play with plenty of width.
The Potters were tipped for great things last season, but they flopped. This time around, they have a decent manager in place and a much more versatile squad. I expect them to challenge for promotion, and I think the Bet365 will be much happier place to be this year.
Championship Promotion – Stoke – 4/1 with Ladbrokes.

Championship Top 6 Finish Betting Tips
Matthew Benham’s methodology must be admired. BRENTFORD continue to sell players each summer, yet there always seems to be a plan in place to replace them. Even if Neal Maupay leaves between now and the beginning of the season, fans would be feeling reasonably confident that a replacement for the Frenchman will be waiting in the wings.
The Bees have added Pontus Jansson from Leeds, with the Swede replacing Ezri Konsa. They have also kept hold of Ollie Watkins, and made some interesting additions with Christian Norgaard amongst them. Mathias Jensen is another decent prospect whilst Ethan Pinnock is another player who should help the Bees shed their reputation for having a soft underbelly.
Brentford haven’t been far away in recent years, and they are a match for any side in the Championship. Thomas Franke eventually found his feet in the dugout, and he should benefit from having a whole summer to work with his squad.
They are a superbly run club, and they have some hugely promising young players. The Bees should be challenging for a play-off spot this season.
Top Six Finish – Brentford – 2/1 with Betfred.
Championship Top Scorer Tips
Teemu Pukki romped home last season to claim the Top Scorer spot with 29 goals, beating Aston Villa’s Tammy Abraham by three.
Next season, with those gone, Neal Maupay and Dwight Gayle will be hotly tipped Aleksander Mitrovic will also be a solid bet and well worth a free bet should he stay at Craven Cottage.
Jay Rodriguez will be another looking to get amongst the goals, while Kemar Roofe could be a good bet to kick on from his return last term.
Sky Bet Championship Top Goalscorer Odds 2019/20
Although I’ve suggested that Huddersfield might not find it easy to make an instant return to the top flight, I do fancy one of their players to flourish in the Championship this season.
Karlan Grant was signed with one eye on a return to the second tier, and he’s a hugely exciting player. The 21-year ended the season as one of the club’s top goalscorers last year, netting four times including finding the net against Watford and Arsenal.
He’s also netted in pre-season and has tremendous energy. With a lack of an out-and-out goalscorer, Huddersfield could come to rely upon his firepower this season, and although his price has shortened in recent weeks, I still think he’s worth a go at around 16/1.
Sam Vokes is also likely to get plenty of chances this season, and at a similar price, he could be worth a second glance in this market. The Welshman suffered from injuries last season, but he is a significant presence in the final third, and in a more settled Stoke side, he could be prolific.
Top Goalscorers:
Karlan Grant –20/1 with Betfred.
Sam Vokes – 25/1 with Betfred.
