Sunderland is leading the Championship, five points clear, under new coach Regis Le Bris. The team, featuring young players, has scored more goals than any other side and has shown significant improvement from last season's 16th place finish.

Burnley and Sheffield United are also performing well, aiming for immediate promotion after relegation. In contrast, Luton Town struggles in the bottom three, with only three wins in 12 matches, while Leeds is slightly better off than last season despite losing key players.

Norwich's Borja Sainz has emerged as a standout player, scoring 10 goals in 12 games. Meanwhile, Portsmouth, expected to thrive after promotion, sits at the bottom of the table, having failed to win any of their first nine matches.
