The English Football League have today confirmed that the Championship play-off final will kick off at 3pm on Sunday, May 26. There is one more place in the Premier League up for grabs, with Leeds United, Southampton, West Bromwich Albion and Norwich City bidding to join Leicester City and Ipswich in the top-flight.
It will be the first time Whites boss Daniel Farke has experienced the end of season mini campaign. The German, who will be without striker Patrick Bamford for both legs of the semi-finals, told the media: "I trust my players. It's not about me. It's not about playing chess with the opponent's manager. In such a crunch game it's the players who decide things. Managers are there to support them and back them and prepare them in the best possible way.
Farke is a Championship promotion specialist, having led the Canaries to the title on two previous occasions. His team are the overwhelming favourites with the bookmakers to reach the final, having beaten Norwich twice during the regular league campaign.
