Another EFL Championship season is here.
The 2022-23 campaign kicks off Friday with Huddersfield Town hosting Burnley in a meeting between two teams that are seen as legitimate shots to promote to the Premier League.
Burnley find themselves back in the Championship after six seasons in the top flight. Their relegation brought about a managerial change as Sean Dyche was sacked in April after 10 years at Turf Moor. After a short caretaker stint by Mike Jackson to finish the season, Burnley hired former Manchester City and Belgium defender Vincent Kompany to take over the full-time coaching duties.
Kompany heads into his first English managerial post after serving as Anderlecht boss since 2020.
Meanwhile, Huddersfield were within a single victory of earning promotion last season, having advanced all the way to the promotion playoff final in May before being sunk by a first-half own-goal against Nottingham Forest. The Terriers are set up to make another run at the top of the table, although they'll do so without Carlos Corberon as the Spaniard resigned as manager earlier this month. Frequent caretaker Danny Schofield was immediately given the permanent job, with Huddersfield hoping that familiarity will be the key to success in the upcoming season.
