Championship 2025/26 title odds: Ipswich favourites

After a thrilling season concluded, Coral has released its Championship 2025/26 outright winner odds, with lpswich Town the favourites to win the title.

The Tractor Boys couldn't maintain their momentum in the Premier League after back-to-back promotions, but the bookies think they're well set to make an immediate return to the top-flight.

Southampton, Sheffield United and Birmingham City are among the main challengers for next year's Championship crown.

Ipswich are favourites to win next year's Championship title at odds of 4/1. They had a disappointing campaign and were ill-equipped for the demands of the Premier League, finishing 19th with 22 points.

Liam Delap appears to be off to Chelsea, but if they can keep hold of manager Kieran McKenna they have a good chance to bounce back at the first time of asking.

Southampton, who recently appointed Will Still as their new manager, are next in the betting with odds of 6/1 to win the Championship. The Saints nearly broke the record for the lowest point tally in Premier League history, finishing with 12, so will hope that Still is the man to turn their fortunes around.

Sheffield United lost the play-off final in heartbreaking fashion to Sunderland, having been in the promotion places for the majority of the season. They are odds of 8/1 to win the title next season, as are Birmingham.

Two teams that earned promotion from League One and have star power in the boardroom will be looking to shake things up in the Championship next season.

Birmingham City are joint-third favourites to win the 2025/26 Championship at odds of 8/1. The Blues set an EFL points record last season, winning League One with 111 points, and plenty are backing them to keep spending big as they aim to reach the big time.

Meanwhile Wrexham, who are among the favourites to sign Jamie Vardy, are seeking to make history by achieving four consecutive promotions. The Welsh side are seen as outsiders at 25/1, but it would be a fairytale befitting of Hollywood.

Leicester City face the prospect of a points deduction for breaking financial rules, which may reflect their odds of 14/1 to win the Championship, as well as continued uncertainty over their managerial position.

You can also bet on the favourites to be relegated from next season's Premier League, with promoted sides Leeds, Burnley and Sunderland all tipped for an immediate drop back to the Championship.

The odds for promotion and relegation from the Championship have also been released on Coral and can be found here.
