Latest Championship promotion odds as Sunderland take big step towards play-offs

The race for the final two Championship play-off spots are wide open with Sunderland currently sat in sixth place. Tony Mowbray's side have defied all odds to even be in contention for the top-six having had to play the vast majority of the campaign without key man Ross Stewart.

The likes of Blackburn Rovers and West Brom can still displace the Black Cats from their lofty heights - the two play-off rivals have a game in hand on the Wearsiders. Nonetheless, the bookmakers have slashed the odds on Sunderland to win promotion, having been outsiders a few weeks ago.

Oddschecker has the Black Cats down as the joint-fourth favourite to win promotion, with Sheffield United all but confirmed in joining Burnley in the Premier League next season. North-East rivals Middlesbrough remain the favourites to win promotion via the play-offs after an incredible turn around under Michael Carrick.
