Stay tuned for live updates as Leeds United takes on Plymouth Argyle in the Championship today.
The second tier of English football is becoming more and more competitive, making it a thrilling and dynamic league. At the end of the season, the reward for teams is a chance to move up to the Premier League.
After being demoted from the Premier League last season, Luton, Burnley, and Sheffield United find themselves back in the Championship, where they are expected to compete for a chance to reach the play-offs again. They will be joined by Norwich City, a steadily improving Coventry team, and Leeds United, who were runners-up in the play-offs. Meanwhile, at the bottom of the standings, Wayne Rooney is working to turn Plymouth’s situation around after they barely escaped relegation last season. Portsmouth and Derby, along with Oxford, who won the play-off final, are the teams that have moved up from League One.
