Antepost football betting odds for the forthcoming 2008/2009 season will be at the top of most football fans list of priorities this coming weekend as the season gets underway for clubs in The Championship, League One and League Two. The excitement of a new season brings about much optimism for supporters of most teams as they head in to the new campaign with the belief that 'this will be our season'. Many supporters will be putting their money where their mouth is and having a bet on their team to either win the league, get promoted or back their favourite striker to be top goalscorer. The opening weekend of the new season is certainly a busy one for betting and even if you don't fancy the chances of your own team this season, having an antepost bet is a great way to enjoy the football and even if your team is rooted to the bottom of the division for nine months, at least having an antepost voucher on the team at the top of the division keeps your interests alive of pocketing a few quid in May.

The Premier League
The Premier League looks as competitive as it has ever been heading in to the new season. Reigning Champions, Man Utd, are the current favourites at 5/4 but Chelsea are not far behind in the betting with www.Ladbrokes.com. It really is going to be a matter of opinion amongst fans who believe that this is set to be a two horse race. The Betting Directory team are siding with Chelsea, firstly becuase as a betting proposition they represent the best value but secondly it should be safe to assume that new boss at Stamford Bridge, Phil Scolari, can bring out the best of Chelsea's star studded squad. Very little seperated the teams last term and if Ronaldo does not repeat his consistent performances for the Reds the Chelsea should be able to capitalise.
Arsenal and Liverpool fans are sure to think that their sides can have a say in the title race and if you think either can upset the front runners, then the 6/1 about each of the two sides winning the title looks a good bet.
The Championship
The Championship is possibly the toughest divison of the three football leagues t get out of. The pot of gold that awaits in the Premier League for the clubs successful enough to achieve promotion means that almost every team in The Championship is in pursuit of promotion. This year looks likely to be as compettive as ever with the majority of the division holding Premiership experience, or at least Premiership talent in the squad.
The three relegated clubs from the Premier Legaue ae all prominant in the antepost odds with Birmingham the favourites to win the division at 6/1, Reading 10/1 and Derby 11/1. All three should be in the hunt for a promotion place along with several others including Sheffield United (12/1), Crystal Palace (12/1) and 'money bags' QPR at best odds of 9/1 with Ladbrokes.com. Birmingham would appear to have the best squad and providing they can withstand the exoectation levels of the fans and board, Alex McLeish's side look a good bet.
League One
The Bookmakers see League One as a two horse race between the division's heavyweights Leeds United (3/1) and Leicester City (6/1). However, in recent years, the favourites in this league have struggled allowing some bigger priced teams in the antepsot betting to win the title. Therefore it may be more worthwhile studying the form and trying to pick out some value. Huddersfield could well be that bet at odds of 14/1. They have made some shrewd signings close season, have an experienced manager in Stan Ternant and have sold over 16,000 season tickets so should be guaranteed a good support.
League Two
League Two looks set to be a tough division following the promotion of two of last seasons divisional big guns in MK Dons and Peterborough. Shrewsbury are the pre season favoruites to win the League at 8/1 with Ladbrokes whilst Darlington and Bradford are joint second favoruites at 10/1. Bournemouth were looking a good bet at decent odds to win this division until they were deducted 17 points just two days before the season starts. Therefore it looks like we will ahve to side with Darlington in League Two. The Quakers were beaten play off semi finalists last season and have been towards the top for the last few seasons. They should have more than enough experience to mount a challenge and 10/1 looks reasonable.
