Millwall vs Swansea City LIVE: Championship latest score, goals and updates from fixture
An increasingly competitive second tier in English football remains an intense and exciting competition, with the prize of a place in the Premier League on offer at the end of the season.
Relegation from the top flight last term means Luton, Burnley and Sheffield United are all back in the second tier this term and will be expected to push for play-off spots again at least, but so too will Norwich City, an improving Coventry and beaten play-off finalists Leeds United. At the other end of the table, Wayne Rooney is aiming to revive Plymouth's fortunes after they narrowly avoided relegation last year, with Portsmouth and Derby the teams promoted from League One along with play-off final winners Oxford.

Former Manchester United star fires warning over Rasmus Hojlund decision
Manchester United have been warned not to let striker Rasmus Hojlund leave this summer, despite the arrival of Benjamin Sesko. The Slovenia international has been brought in from RB Leipzig for £74m, with the Red Devils beating Newcastle for the in-demand striker. The 22-year-old will have to adapt to his new surroundings in the Premier League, but is expected to lead the line in a new-look front three featuring Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha. That will push Hojlund down the pecking order, which is no surprise after a seriously underwhelming season last time round. The Denmark international, who is also just 22 years old, managed 10 goals in 52 appearances in all competitions, with just four in 32 outings in the Premier League. In The Mixer: Exclusive analysis, FPL tips and transfer talk sent straight to your inbox every week – sign up, it's an open goal. After the arrival of Sesko, Manchester United are reportedly open to letting Hojlund leave, with AC Milan keen on a loan deal with an option to buy next summer. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that a deal between the two clubs has been struck, but the striker is keen to stay and fight for his place. Former Red Devils and Arsenal defender Mikael Silvestre feels letting the Dane go would be an error, with United needing competition for places and back-up for the starting XI. 'Marcus Rashford has gone and there are not a lot of strikers around, Joshua Zirkzee is a different type of striker that doesn't make those runs in behind the defence,' Silvestre told Hajper. 'He is another type of player for certain games, certain opposition. But no, you need competition, need quality, so I wouldn't rush into sending Rasmus Hojlund out on loan if Sesko signs. Absolutely not.' Silvestre does like what he has seen from Sesko, though, feeling like he could well be a hit under Ruben Amorim. ;Benjamin Sesko is an upcoming talent and he's got certain qualities that could fit into Ruben Amorim's style of play,' said the Frenchman. 'He's got presence, height, he's good with his back against the defenders. He's got the athleticism to respond to the physicality of the Premier League. He's ticking a lot of boxes for sure.' Amorim told MUTV of his new centre-forward: 'He has the characteristics that we needed. Ben is a player – with all the information that we have – that we need to stop the guy from working, not the opposite! 'So that is also important. He's really young. He's good in the air, he's good at running the channels, good on the ball. I think he has great potential. I think he can improve a lot and, for sure, he is going to feel at home in our club. More Trending 'He has the right character to be in this group, so I'm really happy to have him.' Hojlund was left on the bench on Saturday as Manchester United drew with Fiorentina in a pre-season friendly at Old Trafford. Mason Mount filled in as a false nine and thoroughly impressed his manager. 'It's unbelievable,' Amorim said of Mount's work rate. 'The way he works, moving all the time and he knows all the positions, but also the other guys. It was a good test to prepare for the first time.'

‘Clubs won't expect it' – Luke Littler gives his prediction for Man Utd's season
United are keen for the recently-crowned World Matchplay champion to visit Old Trafford to show off his latest trophy success. RED DEVILS REVIVAL 'Clubs won't expect it' – Luke Littler gives his prediction for Man Utd's season LUKE LITTLER is 'excited' about Manchester United's prospects this year – and reckons 'most clubs' will be surprised by their revival under boss Ruben Amorim. United embarrassingly finished 15th in last season's Premier League, losing 18 league matches as morale hit rock bottom. Advertisement 6 Benjamin Sesko has signed for Manchester United for £74million from RB Leipzig Credit: Getty 6 The Slovenian striker scored lots of goals in the German top flight and could fire United to a better league position Credit: Getty And the Red Devils had the turmoil of losing to Tottenham in the Europa League final in Bilbao, which denied them Champions League football. It was their worst campaign since they were relegated from the top flight in 1974 and Portuguese chief Amorim, 40, is under pressure to deliver this term. It has not been easy being a fan of the club and Littler, one of their most high-profile supporters, had to put up with a lot of abuse, especially on social media, from those from rival teams. Yet performances in the recent Summer Series in the US have given him cause for great optimism. Advertisement READ MORE ON MAN UTD DONNA-RUMOUR Watch Ruben Amorim's reaction when asked if Man Utd are signing Donnarumma And the United hierarchy have backed their man, splashing the cash this summer by signing Matheus Cunha (£62.5million), Diego Leon (£7million), Bryan Mbeumo (£65million) and Benjamin Sesko (£74million). Striker Sesko, 22, has arrived from RB Leipzig and is an exciting young talent who could take the Prem by storm and perhaps solve their scoring issues. Littler, 18, said: 'I'm very excited. I think we are underdogs. 'Obviously from last season, I don't think anything worse can happen – unless we finish 16th. Advertisement 'But yeah, I think it is going to be a very interesting season. Most clubs won't expect it but I'm expecting top five.' Manchester United are keen for fellow Treble winner Littler to return to Old Trafford and show off his latest major darts trophy. 6 Cameroon forward Bryan Mbeumo has arrived at Old Trafford as part of a mega-money summer recruitment spend Credit: Getty 6 Brazilian star Matheus Cunha is set to make his United senior debut against Arsenal next weekend Credit: Getty Advertisement Waiting for the match to start? 📺 Keep up the live action with bet365 live casino! 👇 Last month, the Warrington teenager completed the Triple Crown when he beat James Wade 18-13 to lift the Betfred World Matchplay. Within the space of just 15 months, he has won the sport's three biggest events – the Premier League Darts, the World Championship and the Matchplay.

It is going to be a very interesting season. Most clubs won't expect it but I'm expecting top five. Luke Littler on Manchester United's new Premier League campaign Following his latest triumph, secured at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool, club insiders would welcome him doing the same again with this pot of silverware. Though Littler was not even born when United completed the historic Treble in 1999, they see the similarities with his latest achievement. 6 Luke Littler showed off the Sid Waddell Trophy at Old Trafford in January 2025 Credit: Getty Advertisement 6 Ruben Amorim will be determined to avoid a repeat of last year's terrible Premier League campaign Credit: Getty No official conversation has been had yet between the two parties but Littler has close links to the management.
