Championship
Coventry Odds For Automatic Promotion (2025/26)
With just 17 Championship games remaining, Coventry City are in pole position to secure automatic promotion to the Premier League for the first time since 2000/01.
The Sky Blues were relegated to the second division after finishing 19th in the table and they’ve faced an uphill struggle to regain their place in the top flight of the Football League.
Having dropped down to the fourth tier of English football prior to the 2016/17 season, Coventry finished sixth in the table but secured promotion through the playoffs and they are now on the verge of an emotional return to the Premier League.
Coventry are three points clear of title rivals Middlesbrough at the top of the Championship ladder, with 17 league games remaining and Frank Lampard has done a brilliant job since arriving at the helm in November 2024.
Now clear favourites in Championship outright winner odds, Coventry are on the verge of something special and fans will be hoping that they can hold their nerve as we enter the business stage of the campaign.
Here, we look at the current state of Coventry’s odds for the Championship title, automatic promotion by finishing in the top two and their chances of promotion by any means – including the playoffs. So, without further ado, let’s get down to it.
Coventry Outright Winner Odds:
Currently sitting pretty at the top of the league, Coventry are now just 4/6 to lift the trophy at the end of the season. Lampard’s men have scored more goals (62) than any of their Championship rivals and supporters will be hoping that they can fend off the chasing pack.
Coventry Top Two Finish Odds:
With Coventry and Middlesbrough clear at the top of the table, the Sky Blues have an eight-point advantage over third placed Ipswich Town and Lampard’s side are 1/7 in betting odds at William Hill to clinch automatic promotion in the coming months.
Coventry Promotion Odds:
Should Coventry slip out of the top two, they will still have the playoffs to fall back on. At 1/16 to clinch promotion via any method, this gives backers the added security of knowing that Coventry can gain promotion via that route and the bet will still land.
