League 1 Picks

LeagueOneBrentford

League 1 is the third tier of competition in the Football League of England. 24 clubs compete for the right to join the Football Championship and the promise of elevation to the Premier League. League 1 may not be as popular as the other league competitions but the Football League fuels the growth of football in England. This growth is evident in the continued interest and commercial sponsorship.

Charlton Athletic won automatic promotion to the Championship finishing atop the League 1 table in 2011/2012, with Sheffield Wednesday also earning promotion in second place. Huddersfield Town were promoted following a penalty shootout in the playoff final against Sheffield United. Who will make the jump in 2013?
