How to Choose Your Championship Football Bet

Betting on Sky Bet Championship fixtures demands more homework and patience than any other league. This is due to a number of reasons.

This compares to other teams in the league which have total turnovers equating to less than £5m. The Championship is one of the toughest leagues in the world with a high number of fixtures and the biggest prize in football; promotion to the Premier League.
