The second tier of English football is certain to provide thrills and surprises across the 2023/24 Championship season.
Former Premier League champions Leicester City are among the huge clubs hoping to win promotion from the division, with Leeds United and Southampton also re-entering as a result of relegation from the top flight.
The Foxes made a strong start under manager Enzo Maresca, who was a coach for Pep Guardiola at Manchester City before moving to the King Power Stadium. They have been the early pace-setters in the division, along with Ipswich Town, managed by former Manchester United coach Kieran McKenna.
Sunderland are also hoping to make another playoff push and Preston North End have been one of the surprise sides early on this season in terms of form. The same cannot be said of Sheffield Wednesday, another of English football's oldest institutions, who are in dire straits at the foot of the table.
With 24 teams in action across almost 10 months of drama, there are lots of opportunities to find an edge on the betting markets. Here are the latest best offers for the Championship 2023/24 season.

Championship betting markets
As with other competitions in football, there are a significant number of markets that can be bet on in the sport with BetOnSports. Equally, a few are Championship-specific, especially if you want to bet on future outright betting markets including competition winners and top goalscorers. Here's a list of the most popular Championship bets:
- Match result — this is a straightforward market where you can select the outcome of a match. You can choose either side to win or that the match will finish a draw. Selecting multiple match outcomes created an accumulator which will boost your odds but will also carry more jeopardy!
- Draw no bet — If you don't want to risk it too much, the 'draw no bet' might be the market for you. Essentially in this market you pick a winner but keep your stake if the game ends in a draw.
- Both teams to score — Another very popular market, especially with those who like an accumulator. Each match has a both teams to score market and you can choose if it'll happen or not.
- To win to 'nil' — If you have an inclination that a team will win but won't concede a goal then look no further than the 'to win to nil' market which allows you to bet on just that.
- Correct score — Perhaps not the most popular but one which comes with the biggest odds and therefore, the best bang for your buck. From 0-0 to 5-5, pick the scoreline you think will occur.
Championship betting specials
As mentioned before, as well as the usual and most popular markets that people choose during matches, you can also find a number of Championship special markets with BetOnSports. Beyond individual fixtures and results, you can try your luck with a number of Championship-specific specials.
- Competition winner — A self-explanatory market to begin with. In this one, you just select the team that you believe will finish top of the pile.
- Competition Golden Boot winner — Similar to the selection above but slightly different: a player-focused market in which you simply select the player which you think will score the most goals in the competition this season.
- To be promoted — Back a team to join the Premier League at the end of the season. Teams can do this automatically by finishing in the top two of the Championship; alternatively, should they finish between third and sixth, they must win a two-legged playoff against another team in those positions and then beat another semifinal winner in the final at Wembley Stadium.
- To be relegated — Think a team will finish in the bottom three? Cash in on their misery by backing the club you think will struggle enough to be relegated to third tier League One. Former Premier League clubs Blackpool, Reading and Wigan Athletic suffered that fate in 2022/23.
