Football betting: Play-off winners Millwall 14/1 for Premier League


Millwall are 14/1 to claim back-to-back promotions after earning their place in next season’s Sky Bet Championship.

The Lions beat Bradford 1-0 in the League One play-off final at Wembley on Saturday, thanks to a late goal from veteran striker Steve Morison.

They have now been made 14/1 shots by the EFL sponsors to win promotion to the Premier League when they return to action next season. They are 50/1 to win the Championship.

Relegation is considered much more likely though – they are 3/1 to slide straight back down to the third tier.

Bradford must hope it will be third time lucky after missing out in the play-offs for the second year in a row.

Thye are 7/2 to be promoted next season and 10/1 to win the title.

Those prices make them fourth favourites behind market leaders Blackburn, Portsmouth and Wigan.
