The Championship
is such a hard league to predict. Form really does go out the window when you
are thinking of who will win it all. Teams that have been relegated from the
premiership can really struggle with the demands of this league and there are always
a few surprise teams that punch above their weight. Last season it was Leeds
who ran away with the title. Bielsa’s men were fantastic winning the title by
10 Points, Scoring 77 goals and conceding 35. Brentford narrowly missed out on
automatic promotion and lost the Playoff Final to Fulham. With the season
starting just a few weeks ago Brentford are still favorites to get promoted even
with the loss of their star man Ollie Watkins to Aston Villa for a fee of 27
million. Other promotion favorites include all the premier league relegated
sides Watford, Bournemouth and Norwich. However for me I think if Brentford can
hold on to Benrahma they will got promoted. Watch out for Swansea and Blackburn
they will definitely be in the mix for promotion. I’m looking forward to seeing
how Jamal Lowe does in this team.
The championship for me has to be one of the most exciting leagues around the world. The teams play a whopping 46 games. Their bread and butter is midweek to weekend games thrown in with cup competitions along the way. Any side can make a run for the playoffs or even the automatic spots for promotion with 10 games still left to go, I don’t think any other league can offer you that type of excitement especially when the reward is the premier league.
