We've looked at the betting data to find out who is likely to be promoted from the Championship.
The resumption of the Championship has prompted bookmakers to re-release their promotion odds, with 10 teams 25/1 or shorter.
West Brom have overtaken Leeds as the most likely for promotion, currently 1/10 to be playing in the Premier League next season.
Leeds do look likely to join them, though. Marcelo Bielsa’s side are 1/8 odds-on for a long awaited return to England’s top division.
The biggest market movers, however, are West London side Brentford. Despite being as long as 7/1 in November last year, the Bees are now just 1/1 best price.
That’s partly due to their victory over local rivals Fulham, who have been edged out to 2/1 to return to the Premier League.
There’s a host of big clubs scrapping it out below the West London pair, with Nottingham Forest drifting slightly out to 13/2 for promotion.
Preston North End are next in the betting at 16/1, with Cardiff a shade longer at 22/1. The other Welsh side in the Championship, Swansea, are now 25/1 to go up this season.
Oddschecker spokesperson Callum Wilson: “Brentford are the real market movers in the race for the Prem, and they've been heavily backed by punters in the last 24 hours.
"Around 32% of all bets in that timeframe have backed Thomas Frank's side for a remarkable promotion push."
