How a live Championship match plays out

A pre-match predictor ends at kick-off. Here the match is where it starts: every goal settles a pick and opens the next one.

  1. Before kick-off

    Call the score

    You go 2-1 to the home side. Your correct score locks the moment the match kicks off.

  2. 23'

    Pick the next scorer

    You back the home striker to score next. After a short fair-play delay, the pick is locked in.

  3. 31' GOAL

    Points land instantly

    He scores. Your points hit the leaderboard straight away, not at full time.

  4. 31'

    A fresh pick opens

    The next goal is up for grabs: call the scorer again, or which team scores next.

  5. Full time

    Your score call pays too

    It finishes 2-1. The correct score you called before kick-off lands as well.

Points build toward the weekly leaderboard, and the top two win real cash - £15 and £10 across the top two.

Predict the Championship, live

The EFL Championship is the second tier of English football and one of the most competitive divisions in European football. Twenty-four clubs battle across 46 gruelling matchdays from August through May - with automatic promotion for the top two, and a playoff for the third promotion spot. The play-off final at Wembley is often called the richest single match in football. Every game matters, every goal counts.

The EFL Championship was formed in 2004 as the successor to the First Division and has since become a globally watched league in its own right. The sheer volume of matches, the quality of clubs competing (many of them with Premier League histories), and the intensity of the promotion and relegation battles make it one of the most engaging leagues to follow and predict throughout the season.
