The 2013–14 Football League Championship is the tenth season of the Football League Championship under its current title, the twenty-first season under its current league division format and will mark the 125th anniversary of the Football League's inaugural season. The season is due to begin on 3 August 2013 and finish on 3 May 2014, with all matches on the final day kicking off simultaneously.[1]

Teams

Of the 24 participating teams, eighteen remain following the 2012–13 Football League Championship. They are joined by three teams promoted from the 2012–13 Football League One and three relegated from the 2012–13 Premier League.
