Aston Villa and Derby face off in the Championship play-off final
Aston Villa and Derby will go head-to-head in a battle to return to the Premier League at the end of May.
The Rams beat Leeds 4-2 at Elland Road to book their place at Wembley, while Villa overcame West Brom on penalties.
The clash will pit Derby boss Frank Lampard against Villa assistant manager John Terry.
Ashley Cole is also likely to feature in the final for Derby, along with Chelsea loanees Fikayo Tomori and Mason Mount, while the Blues’ young striker Tammy Abraham will lead the line for Villa.
The Villains were defeated in last season’s play-off final by Fulham, while Derby’s last final appearance came in 2014 when Bobby Zamora struck a last-minute winner for QPR.

Heading into the play-offs, Villa had the form, the match-winners and the momentum.
However, their first-leg wobbles and second-leg defeat to West Brom suggest it's far from a simple task for Villa at Wembley.
Derby were lethal at Elland Road with Jack Marriott producing two sharp finishes to prod his side into an unassailable lead.
It will be a firecracker atmosphere at the national stadium. Villa's play-off experience and determination to avoid a repeat of last year could see them over the line.
