Leeds United and Southampton go head-to-head at Wembley in the Championship play-off final on Sunday.
Both sides are looking for an immediate return to the Premier League following last year's relegation, and they ultimately breezed through their respective semi-final ties.
After the Whites and the Saints both played out goalless draws in the first legs of their semi-finals, Daniel Farke's troops thrashed Norwich City 4-0 in the reverse fixture, while the Saints dispatched West Bromwich Albion 3-1 at the St. Mary's to move one game away from reclaiming their top-flight status.
