When are the EFL 2023/24 fixtures released? Championship, League One, League Two
RadioTimes.com highlights when the 2023/24 EFL fixtures will be released, including the Championship, League One and League Two
August is fast approaching and with it, the return of EFL football.
The 2022/23 Championship, League One, and League Two campaigns will live long in the memory, particularly for those clubs that achieved success, but the early signs are that the upcoming campaign should be even better still.
The addition of relegated Premier League trio Leeds United, Leicester City, and Southampton as well as promoted sides Plymouth Argyle, Ipswich Town, and Sheffield Wednesday has given us a second tier field that has set tongues wagging and mouths watering. Some are calling it the best Championship lineup ever and, in truth, it's hard to argue.
A League One line-up without last year's top three will be no bad thing for competition and leaves the third tier tantalisingly wide open as things stand. Right now it feels like anyone could win promotion to the Championship in May.
There are no shortage of big hitters down in League Two, though, with newly-promoted Wrexham and Notts County joining Stockport County and Bradford City among the early favourites. Those four have plenty of other sides to look out for as well – not least big spenders like Doncaster Rovers and Gillingham.
The season is set to get under way on the first weekend of August and wrap up as usual in May but all 72 teams will find out their 2023/24 fixtures later this month.
Fixture release day is a magical time when the whole season stretches out ahead and anything feels like it's possible – and it's not far away now.
