Top 5 attacking sides in the Sky Bet Championship

Joint-4th place – Bristol City (20 goals)

Saturday’s 3-0 defeat at Ashton Gate to Leeds United was their first reverse in the league since losing 2-1 away at Birmingham, a run of 11 Sky Bet Championship games without a loss. It was this run that drove them to the play-off picture in English football’s second tier.

The Robins have brought in a number of players, paying big fees for the likes of Nathan Baker (£3.4 million – Aston Villa), Famara Diédhiou (£5.5 million SCO Angers) with a smaller fee paid for Niclas Eliasson (£1.8 million – IFK Norköpping).

Other arrivals such as free transfer right-back Eros Pisano (Hellas Verona) and loanees Jonathan Leko (West Brom) and Cauley Woodruff (Fulham) have allowed Bristol City boss Lee Johnson to adopt a free-flowing, attack-minded side that have improved massively from their performances last season.
