League One 2020/21 Promotion Odds

After a torrid few seasons, this is finally set to be a brighter year for the Black Cats and their faithful supporters. Sunderland have a strong squad heading into the new campaign, and will be aiming to climb into the Championship. Whilst Will Grigg is no longer on fire after a torrid time in front of goal last season, the striker is historically prolific at this level. If Sunderland can get the Northern Irishman firing, their goal to earn promotion will be that much easier.

Whilst a strong side – they missed out on the League One Playoffs by a single spot in 2019-20 – Peterborough’s hopes for promotion to the Championship rest largely on the future of former-Newcastle striker Ivan Toney. Toney scored 24 goals last season for the Posh as they flirted with the playoffs, but the forward is now holding out for a move to the Premier League after his impressive campaign, and is linked with a move to the likes of Crystal Palace, Brighton and newly-promoted Leeds United. If Peterborough can keep hold of Toney – or spend his potential transfer wisely – then they will be a difficult proposition as they push for promotion to the Championship.

Another big side that finds themselves in the third tier of English football, Charlton are set to make a solid bid to return to the Championship after suffering relegation last season. The Addicks will be hoping that Macauley Bonne can hit the ground running, as the striker is particularly productive at this level, proven by his 11 goals despite Charlton finishing 22nd.

After a strong season in 2019-20 that saw Portsmouth a few kicks away from the League One Playoff Final, Pompey will be finally hoping that this is the season that they return to the Championship. Portsmouth haven’t tasted Championship football since suffering relegation back in 2012, but the club are set-up for an exciting season – they are linked with Liverpool winger Ben Woodburn, and such signings could help propel the squad into the promotion battle.

In what is one of the harshest relegation stories in recent times, Wigan Athletic dropped down into League One as a result of a 12-point deduction following their administration. This meant that despite the Latics being well clear of the relegation zone at the end of the season with 59 points, they dropped into 23rd with just 47 points.

For the club's immediate future, it is about survival rather than promotion out of League One, as the supporters try to salvage £500,000 to secure Wigan's future. This does mean players will be sold, staff will depart and ultimately, no new faces at the DW Stadium.

Promotion is going to be tough for the Latics, and it may honestly be a case of surviving the drop in these tier as well. Wigan to get promoted odds now sit at 6/1 and you claim this bet right here.

Who else could make a push for one of the three promotion spots in League One? Well, whilst defeat in the play-off final hurt Oxford United (10/3), the club have the quality within the squad to excel in the news season after coming so close last time out.

Hull City (4/1) and Ipswich Town (4/1) are both pegged to be in the race for promotion, with the Tigers suffering relegation from the Championship in 2019-20 leaving both clubs floundering in the third division, despite their relative stature.

Bristol Rovers (9/2) are favoured to have an outside shot at promotion, but will have to have an outstanding season if they are to earn promotion to the Championship after finishing 14th last year.
