With the new EFL season very much on the horizon, BetVictor has released the 2026-27 Championship top scorer odds market.
The second tier Golden Boot race can often make an exciting and absorbing battle which acts as a sidekick to the main league action. In the 2025-26 campaign, Swansea star Zan Vipotnik landed the award having fired home 23 league goals.
Since the league was branded ahead of the 2004-05 season, Aleksandar Mitrovic still boasts a seasonal record high of 43 goals which was achieved with Fulham in 2021-22. The Serbian striker now represents Al Rayyan in Qatar.
Could anyone match or even better Mitrovic’s stunning tally? England’s second tier will be playing host to a 2026 World Cup star as well as an English forward who was extremely unlucky to miss out on Thomas Tuchel’s 26-man squad. So here at BetVictor News, let’s have a closer look at who our traders favour.
Championship Top Scorer Odds For 2026-27
Wolves striker Raul Jimenez and West Ham forward Jarrod Bowen are the joint 6/1 favourites in the 2026-27 Championship top scorer odds market. Jimenez returns to Molineux for a second-stint whereby he previously netted 40 Premier League goals in 135 appearances. The veteran also netted three goals in the 2026 World Cup. Which included a penalty against England.
On the topic of the Three Lions, international forward Jarrod Bowen has confirmed he will be staying at West Ham despite missing out on North America and suffering relegation last term. The 29-year-old netted 65 top-flight goals and also rattled home 52 Championship goals during his time with Hull.
Could Taty Castellanos Finish As The 2026-27 Championship Top Scorer?
Offering bettors substantial value at 14/1, West Ham striker Taty Castellanos is worth plenty of consideration. The Argentine international scored six times in 18 Premier League appearances last term having joined the Hammers in the winter window.
West Ham’s Championship odds for the title shortened drastically after Jarrod Bowen confirmed he was staying. And if Castellanos can carry on from where he left off, the east Londoners – alongside the Argentine and Bowen – should have a very fruitful season.
Will Zan Vipotnik Repeat His 2025-26 Championship Goal Scoring Form?
Having defied the Championship odds last season, Zan Vipotnik will be gunning for glory once again this term. The Slovenian star made a rather modest start to his Swans career before finding his feet in 2025-26.
A number of Premier League sides have been keeping tabs on the 24-year-old but he committed his future to the South Wales side until the summer of 2030. At 16/1, Vipotnik is worth shortlisting for those who will be betting on the Championship top scorer odds market.
