The 2024/25 EFL Championship season will be another marathon campaign for fans of second tier English football.
The race for potential Premier League promotion will be a tight contest once again with two automatic spots, and one playoff place available, to push on into the top-flight.
A 46-game season will test the endurance of every team involved with Luton Town, Burnley and Sheffield United all back in the division following Premier League relegation in 2023/24.
The Sporting News looks at the key fixture details this week and how to follow the matches.
