How the Championship 2019-20 table will look, according to the bookies following spate of coaching changes

While Leeds United fans are enjoying a rare summer of stability following Marcelo Bielsa's contract extension last month, the same cannot be said for a number of their rivals.

Since the season has ended, three teams have appointed new managers, while there are currently vacancies in the Hull City and Birmingham City dugouts, following Nigel Adkins and Garry Monk's departures this month.

Swansea replaced Brighton-bound Graham Potter with former England youth coach Steve Cooper, West Brom hired former West Ham boss Slaven Bilic, while Middlesbrough promoted ex-Leeds defender Jonathan Woodgate to the top job after Tony Pulis left at the end of the season. QPR also now have Mark Warburton in charge now.

Charlton have also had a turbulent off-season, with Lee Bowyer appearing to be set to walk out on the club on Monday, before a new deal was agreed less than 24 hours after a bizarre club statement that very much aired their dirty laundry in public.

Leeds United's stability in regards to their coaching staff has meant that they are able to focus on fine-tuning the squad which finished third last season, but how have the division's recent hires impacted the bookmakers' odds for the Championship title?

Here's a look at how the bookies see the division panning out next term - with a lot of confidence in Bielsa's side...
