The EFL Championship, wise men say, is the most difficult football competition for a team to win. The degree of difficulty, I dare to say, is maintained in Championship fantasy football. For another season, these contests will be available in FootballCoin.
How does it work, and where do you sign up for these contests? What do you stand to win, and where should you start your scouting mission? These are the things that I’ll be looking at in this article. Here’s everything that you need to know ahead of the EFL Championship 2025/2026 fantasy football season.
Play English Championship Fantasy Football for Free in FootballCoin
Yes, FootballCoin is a free game. It’s remained this way across the nine years that it’s been active.
The changes it has incurred, however, have made it better. For one thing, the game now includes more leagues than ever before.
This means, simply, that fans of football can play in fantasy events throughout the year. The Championship is available for the 2025/2026 season, with real data accounting for the ratings received by each player.
How to Play in the Championship Fantasy Football Each Week
Start with a simple dream of being a football manager! Maybe you could even make it all the way to the EFL Championship.
Next, practice working on those dreams. FootballCoin allows you to simulate creating your ideal Championship team.
You’ll need a starting eleven and a bench of subs. You can choose any of the players in the 2025/26 Championship season.
Note, however, that while most of the cards are free to choose by any manager, the higher-ranked cards must be leased or purchased from the marketplace. Once purchased, this digital token becomes yours forever, and the ownership will be noted on the FootballCoin blockchain.
Besides that, all your hard work stands to be rewarded.
Does FootballCoin Offer Real Prizes? How Do You Win?
Yes, FootballCoin delivers real prizes on a daily basis. Yes, daily!
Fantasy football contests may be held daily, with some of the best leagues in the world represented.
Your team is judged based on the real-life performance of players in real games. Get a goal-scoring striker or a goal-saving keeper, and you earn a lot of points. Earn more points than other competitors, and you win real money.
That real money is expressed in XFC, the cryptocurrency of FootballCoin. The currency has been available and active, also, for nearly nine years. It can be traded on crypto exchanges easily for fiat. Yes, it’s all that convenient!
Who Are the Clubs You Want to Watch from EFL Championship?
Plainly, teams battle it out in the crowded, competitive EFL Championship with a view to making it to the big time, the Premier League. The level of the Championship, however, in my view, has grown consistently across the past decade. It’s no surprise that teams that rise often stay there and that top talent plays for clubs in the second tier of British football.
Sheffield United are favourites according to eye-tests and, apparently, Opta supercomputers. The team nearly went up last season, playing wonderfully for much of the campaign, but came unstuck against Sunderland, a long shot, in the play-off finals.
But who’s moving back down? Ipswich earned plenty of fans in the EPL last season, and I was one of them. The team lost Liam Delap, but held on to talented young manager Kieran McKenna. They’re looking to yo-yo their way back to the top tier.
Similarly, Leicester City should be good. West Brom rarely disappoints. Southampton may just have enough to crawl back to the top. And, Coventry, Millwall and Middlesbrough should be fun teams to watch.
Who Are the Top Players that You Want to Watch in the 2025/2026 Season of the EFL Championship?
Plenty of them! Many will reveal themselves starting on August 8th.
Players like Leif Davis, Jacob Greaves, Wilfred Ndidi or Wout Faes are established stars.
However, many fans are raving about Tyler Dibling, Tom Cannon, Maxime Esteve or James Trafford.
Who’ll fulfil these predictions? Frankly, it’s your job to tell us! Prizes await!
What’s the Process of Picking Your Favourite Players from the English Championship?
You’re probably aware of the mechanics of most fantasy football games, such as Fantasy Premier League. Unlike those, FootballCoin has fewer restrictions.
Managers do not need to work within a budget and aren’t required to pick a fixed number of players from a team. You also don’t need to pick a team, virtually, for the whole season. In FootballCoin, each new contest is a new chance at creating your dream team.
In FootballCoin, all you need to do is choose an ideal starting eleven (plus subs) from all of the Championship players available. It’s that easy!
What Strategies Allow You to Win in English Championship Fantasy Football?
There are plenty of strategies that can give you an edge. This isn’t a static, repetitive game. But you need to find out what works for you.
Simply, switching formations or picking players from an in-form team can spell success.
You may also choose to win in FootballCoin in other smart ways. You can organise contests and claim rewards automatically. You can become a marketplace wheeler-dealer, buying and selling cards. Or, you can just lease the cards you own each week. There are numerous ways to be successful in FootballCoin.
What are you waiting for? You are the manager!
