Frequently Asked Questions about the Championship
How Many Games Are Played in the Championship?
Since there are 24 teams in total, each one plays 23 games twice a season, at home and at an away stadium. That means the regular season has 46 matches in total. The regular round is always organized from Friday to Sunday, but there are exceptions during some weeks when games are played between Tuesday and Thursday.
How does the Promotion and Relegation System work?
Each Championship season consists of 46 games. At the end of the campaign, the bottom three clubs are relegated to League One. From 2026-27, the play-offs will expand from four to six teams.
How does Participation in European and Domestic Cups
Championship clubs do not qualify for European competition, so the focus outside of league action is entirely on domestic cup runs. Clubs across the division take part in:
- The FA Cup
- The Carabao Cup (EFL Cup)
- The EFL Trophy (open to under-21 squads)
Domestic cup competitions offer Championship sides the opportunity to test themselves against Premier League opposition, while the EFL Trophy provides younger players with valuable first-team experience across the course of the season.
