The English Championship is one of the most exciting leagues in Europe, with several teams in with a chance of landing promotion to the Premier League. Norwich City proved last season that a promoted side from League One can finish in the top two positions in the table, and Southampton have so far reinforced that fact.

The two pre-season favourites to win this season’s Npower Football League Championship were West Ham United and Leicester City, with the Hammers leading the betting following some heavy investment in players. Manager Sam Allardyce brought Kevin Nolan, Abdoulaye Faye and Matt Taylor into the squad before splurging more money to recruit John Carew and David Bentley, and that expenditure has put them on course for an immediate return to the top flight. Meanwhile, Leicester City have failed to live up their tag and that led to the departure of Sven-Goran Eriksson, with Nigel Pearson returning to the club from Hull City.

Surprisingly it is Southampton who have set the standard for much of the season as manager Nigel Adkins continues to see his stock soar. Following his incredible accomplishment of twice getting Scunthorpe United promoted, the former physio took upon the challenge of dragging Saints out of League One. He did that at the first attempt, and now the likeable Scouser is on the brink of ending their Premier League exile.

There are lots of Championship betting opportunities available, with bookmakers offering odds on the league winner, which teams will get promoted, which sides will be relegated and also Top Goalscorer. Customers can also bet on every single Championship match and many bookmakers will offer them the chance to bet In-Play as well as before the game. Live In-Play betting is set to become very popular this season, with more people enjoying the thrill of striking a bet when the match kicks off.

Selected matches are also broadcast via the firm’s live streaming service. To watch and bet on The Championship live, every weekend:
