Top 5 Players Who Have Created The Most Chances In The EFL Championship This Season?

Top 5 Players Who Have Created The Most Chances In The EFL Championship This Season?

The EFL Championship season is well underway and already plenty of goals have been scored. But today we are looking at the most creative players in the league after the opening 3 games.

This is the list of the 5 players who have created the most chances so far this season.

(All stats found on Fotmob)

5 - Emmanuel Latte Lath - Middlesbrough - 8 Chances Created

Despite only winning 1 of their opening 3 games this season and only scoring 3 goals Middlesborough have created a lot of chances this season. So far in their opening 3 games they have had 68 shots on goal including 30 in their last game against Portsmouth.

One of the reasons for that is Ivorian forward Latte Lath.

So far he has created 8 chances for Michael Carrick’s side proving one of the most exciting players in their squad. This, something he will look to continue throughout the rest of the season as Boro look for a promotion push.

"That's the first of many many goals for that lad this season!" 🌟

4 - Alfie Doughty - Luton Town - 9 Chances Created

Luton Town have struggled tremendously so far this campaign. They have only found the back of the net once this season failing to win any of their opening matches. However creating opportunities isn’t proving to be an issue for them.

Doughty has created 9 chances for Luton this season. This out of the 36 shots on goal that Luton have had.

If Doughty’s chances can be converted they will be able to improve on their dismal start to the campaign.

3 - Finn Azaz - Middlesbrough - 10 Chances Created

The second Middlesbrough player on this list is Azaz.

As previously mentioned, Boro have created a lot of chances this season and Azaz has created more than any other player in the team with 10. This is an average of 3.9 chances per 90.

Middlesbrough really need to capitalise on these chances. If they can, we are sure they will score plenty of goals this year. Their issues simply have come from a lack of finishing ability.

2 - Giorgi Chakvetadze - Watford - 11 Chances Created

Unlike the other teams on this list Watford are flying high in the Championship this season and one reason for that is the amount of goals they have scored thus far.

They have scored 8 goals so far this season which is the second most in the league. One of the reasons behind that impressive scoring form is Chakvetadze who has created 11 chances so far this season.

Chakvetadze could play a key part in Tom Cleverley’s side if they are to get promoted come the end of the year.

- 84 Minutes Played
- 7 Key Passes
- 5/6 Duels Won
- 5/6 Long Balls Completed
- 3/3 Dribbles Completed

1 - Karamoko Dembele - QPR - 12 Chances Created

The final player on this list is QPR’s Karamoko Dembele who has created an astonishing 12 chances so far this season.

This is an average of 6.9 chances created per 90!

QPR have scored just 4 goals so far this season but Dembele has proven a constant threat for them on the wing. Even placing joint second for highest assists in the league this year.

A hugely impressive start to the season. But can he continue that top form?

Karamoko Dembele has created the most chances of any player in the English Championship so far this season.

Skill and tenacity to overcome doubts about his size 👏
