Championship

Swansea are the team to catch in this Championship season, top on 23 points, and West Ham have a point of ground to make up.

On current form, Birmingham are the side to fear: their last five read WWWDW, worth 13 points, and they sit 4th. Goals have flowed for West Ham, the top scorers so far with 30 goals in 11 games. Swansea are the hardest side to break down, with only eight goals conceded in 11 games. The scoring rate in Championship fixtures sits at 2.9 goals per game: neither a goal-fest nor a grind.

Spare a thought for Preston: bottom of the pile with four points after 11 games. Every gap and goal difference is in the full Championship table, and our Championship predictions cover the next round of fixtures.
