Must See EFL Championship TV

Before the close of play due to the coronavirus outbreak, Leeds United and West Brom were sitting pretty in first and second place respectively at the top of the Championship table, six points clear of third place Fulham. Leeds, a highly prestigious club in terms of English football history, have been out of the top flight since 2003. But under the tutelage of Argentinian coach Marcelo Bielsa, a mentor to the likes of Pep Guardiola and Mauricio Poccitino, they have developed an incredibly eye-catching way to play, perfect for football purists.

The real excitement in the league comes with the eight teams battling it out for a place in the playoffs. Fulham, Brentford and two time European champions Notts Forest all look like they have booked their spots, but anyone of Preston, Bristol, Millwall and Cardiff could push their way into the equation, meaning we could see a team reaching England’s top flight for the very first time. One thing is absolutely sure, it’s going to be very close with lots of twists and turns from now until the final day of the season.
