Championship Title Race Opens With Birmingham, Ipswich, Southampton

As the 2025-26 English football season kicks off, the Championship features an exciting clash between newly promoted Birmingham and relegated Ipswich Town, with Ipswich seen as strong contenders for immediate promotion back to the Premier League. In League One, Luton Town are heavy favorites to win the division, with boosted betting odds on an accumulator including wins for Luton, Cardiff, Blackpool, Doncaster, and Huddersfield, all tipped for strong starts to the season. Meanwhile, League Two remains unpredictable after last season’s chaos, with MK Dons favored to win but Chesterfield considered a value pick due to their experienced squad. Across the Atlantic, NCAA College Football's 2025 season has seen significant roster changes that could impact fantasy football values, particularly in the Atlantic Coast Conference. On the NFL front, Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown stands out as a top fantasy player, having ranked third among wide receivers last season in fantasy points and maintaining a high target share and red zone involvement heading into 2025.
