Challenge League

Following the Challenge League season

The Challenge League season runs across 29 clubs, and every match is worth the same three points. That simplicity is what makes the table so volatile in the closing weeks: a single win can lift a side two or three places, and a single defeat can undo a month of good form.

On this page the table sits above the schedule, so you can read the current order and immediately check who plays next. Fixtures are grouped by date with local kick-off times, and results carry the full-time score with the competition already filtered out — only Challenge League matches appear.

What to look for across the season

• Points per game — divide the points column by matches played to compare clubs that have played a different number of games.
• Goal difference — usually the first tie-breaker, so a heavy win can be worth more than a narrow one.
• Form — the five-match strip next to each club shows momentum, not just the season total.
• Fixture congestion — a club with three matches in eight days will rotate, and the results often show it.

Player statistics on this site are stored per season, so the scoring charts above always refer to the current campaign rather than to career totals.
