“very easy, they will win it” Ben Foster predicts who will win the Championship after seeing what has happened 24 hours

In the tight race for promotion from the Championship to the Premier League, Leeds United, Leicester City, and Ipswich Town are the main contenders, with Southampton also in the mix but trailing behind. Currently, Leeds United leads the table, closely followed by Leicester City, with both teams having accumulated 82 points. However, Leeds edges out Leicester on goal difference. Ipswich Town is just a point behind the leaders, making the promotion battle intensely competitive.

Ben Foster, alongside Darren Bent and Danny Thomas, discussed their predictions for the automatic promotion spots on the Football Fill-In Podcast. Bent favored Ipswich Town and Leeds for promotion, while Thomas and Foster predicted Leeds and Leicester would secure the top two spots, leaving Ipswich to potentially miss out on automatic promotion. This speculation underscores the unpredictability and competitiveness of the Championship this season, where even teams with exceptional records face the possibility of missing out on direct promotion to the Premier League.
