The 2026-27 EFL Championship season is underway following the confirmed promotions of Coventry City, Ipswich Town, and Hull City from the prior campaign. Recently relegated Premier League sides West Ham United and Wolverhampton Wanderers lead early trader consensus for automatic promotion or play-off success, bolstered by parachute payments, deeper squads, and established coaching setups. Middlesbrough, Burnley, and Southampton also feature prominently among contenders, with summer transfer activity and pre-season results shaping expectations around automatic spots and the expanded play-off format. Recent form, injury updates, and fixture congestion will influence momentum as teams target the top two or top-eight qualification for promotion contention.
