2022/23 Championship table predicted in full: Where Birmingham, West Brom, Norwich, Burnley, Wigan & Cardiff sit

FiveThirtyEight have delivered their in-depth predictions ahead of the 2022/23 Championship campaign.

We’re just over 24 hours away from another Championship season getting underway. Madness, isn’t it?

Huddersfield Town and Burnley kick things off on Friday evening before the bulk of the action gets underway on Saturday afternoon including Birmingham City away at Luton Town.

West Brom round off Saturday’s games in the late kick-off against Middlesbrough in what is expected to be a preview of two of the promotion favourites.

With the season being so near, FiveThirtyEight have once again launched their in-depth Supercomputer which gives a detailed look at how they expect the Championship table to look come April 2023.

Their website states that, in their system: ‘every team has an offensive rating that represents the number of goals it would be expected to score against an average team on a neutral field, and a defensive rating that represents the number of goals it would be expected to concede. These ratings, in turn, produce an overall SPI rating, which represents the percentage of available points.’

The bookmakers have already made it clear who they think is winning the league and who is facing the drop but does this more sophisticated system agree?

Here’s a look at the table in full from 24th - 1st.
