There is less than a month to go until the domestic football season kicks off with the EFL. As the focus switches from the European Championship, which concludes on Sunday night, we have picked a relegation treble for the forthcoming club campaign.
It is headlined by Wolverhamption Wanderers to be relegated from the Premier League, also includes Plymouth Argyle to drop from the Championship and Crawley Town to go down from League One, and comes in at a price of 23.42/1.

Wolves could be hounded out
Wanderers picked up only five points from their final 10 Premier League matches last season and they may struggle to turn things around at the start of the 2024-25 campaign.
Using last season’s average finishing positions, Gary O’Neil’s side have the toughest start to the top-flight term with a trip to Arsenal on the opening day.
After that, they face Chelsea, Newcastle United, Aston Villa and Liverpool before the end of September while Manchester City go to Molineux after the October international break.
O’Neil is also yet to significantly strengthen his squad and has already lost captain and centre back Max Kilman to West Ham United, with winger Pedro Neto being frequently linked with a move away.
Wolves’ campaign could get off to a slow start and there is little indication that the squad will be capable of avoiding their expected struggles. That is why the West Midlanders are our pick to drop from the Premier League.

Rooney could be a mistake
The jury is still out on Wayne Rooney’s managerial career after he lost nine of his 15 games in charge last season at Birmingham City, who were eventually relegated from the Championship.
The former England striker took over at St. Andrew’s as they were in the top six. His latest job is as head coach at Plymouth, who finished 21st last season, just a point above the relegation zone.
A lot at Home Park could hinge on the future of Morgan Whittaker, who scored 19 goals in the 2023-24 campaign and assisted a further nine.
The 23-year-old has been linked with a move away from the Pilgrims – and if that happens, they could be bang in trouble.
Selection: Plymouth Argyle to be relegated @ 9/4 with William Hill
Crawley exodus a red flag
West Sussex outfit Crawley, the only side in our accumulator who were promoted last term, are odds on to go down this time around.
The Red Devils’ price of 4/6 is more than justified as their win in the League Two play-offs was a shock given they were among the relegation favourites before the campaign began.
That side was masterfully created by Scott Lindsey but it has been ripped up in front of his eyes with only four of the team that started the 2-0 win over Crewe Alexandra at Wembley left at the club.
Crawley have not brought in experienced players to replace them with signings coming from League Two and the National League.
That process is likely to hurt Town as it did Carlisle United, who won the 2022-23 League Two play-offs before finishing bottom of League One last season. We are expecting a similar fate for Lindsey’s side.
