The Ups and Downs of League One

The 2012/2013 English League One season is sure to be very exciting next season as a host of clubs will believe that they have a good chance of taking home the trophy and securing their promotion to the English Championship. League one betting through Bet Victor gives you the option of picking from the 24 teams who you think the outright winner will be by this time next year.

Relegation and Promotion

Charlton coasted to victory in League One in the 2011/2012 season, but they were heavy favourites before even a ball was kicked last year as they had come down from the Championship the previous season and had a squad more than capable of bouncing back quickly.

This time around, Portsmouth, Coventry City and Doncaster Rovers were relegated from the English Championship, and you get a sense that this time those three clubs could well find it much more difficult to emulate Charlton’s success.

Whilst the teams relegated from the Championship will think they stand a fairly good chance, the teams who were promoted from League One will also head into the next tier full of confidence after their successful seasons in League Two. Crawley Town have had successive promotions now from the Blue Square Premier, but in a rather bizarre twist, their manager left to join Rotherham United.

Odds on Good Management

The motivational Paulo Di Canio also had a successful first year in management as he guided Swindon Town to being League Two champions. League one betting through Bet Victor would give you odds of 11/1 for Swindon Town to achieve another promotion this year around. The best odds lay with Sheffield United, who was heartbreakingly knocked out of the play off finals last season against Huddersfield. Bet Victor offers 5/1 for Sheffield United to win League One outright.

 

The upcoming season promises to be one full of surprises as many teams battle it out for promotion or simply to maintain their League One status. And there’s no better way to get involved than with league one betting through Bet Victor , where you can follow the fortunes of all your favourite teams.
