League One is the third tier of English professional football, with lots of big English clubs competing against each other. There's the chance of landing promotion to the Sky Bet Championship, with the top two teams going automatically up a level, while there are also play-off spots between third and sixth. There are also four relegation berths where teams will drop to League Two.
Many football fans enjoy placing Sky Bet League One bets on a week to week basis. It's a great league in terms of placing accumulator wagers. You can also enjoy betting on the individual matches where you can pick out specific outcomes to happen. There are often live betting markets for the League One games and a chance to cash out for a profit or loss along the way.
