The Thrilling Championship: Where Every Team's Fate Hangs in the Balance

The Championship is full of excitement and uncertainty. Every team has a chance.

The Most Exciting League?

The Championship is set for a blockbuster weekend, as mathematically every team can still be promoted or relegated. Data analysts Opta's predictions model shows only a few teams have a very low chance.

Premier League Antidote?

The Premier League has less intrigue, while the Championship offers box-office entertainment. Leeds and Burnley are at the top, but the play-off and relegation spots are highly contested.

'Stature Counts for Nothing'

Premier League parachute payments distort competition, but a well-run team can succeed. Unpredictability is key, as shown by Plymouth's win.

No VAR

The Championship doesn't have VAR, avoiding delays and maintaining spontaneity. Its attendances are on the rise, reflecting its appeal.
