When is Championship play-off final 2022? Nottingham Forest v Huddersfield Town - date, KO time, ticket latest

After a season filled with endless twists and turns, two teams are now just one match away from making it to the Premier League.

Both Fulham and Bournemouth were both able to earn their promotion spots by finishing top and second respectively in the league, thus avoiding the playoffs.

Nottingham Forest were agonisingly close to stealing the second place spot in the Championship but lost out after a crucial 1-0 defeat to Bournemouth.

Huddersfield were able to earn their place in the playoff final after a 2-1 aggregate win over Luton Town on Monday night (23 May).

Jordan Rhodes scored what turned out to be the decisive winner in the 82nd minute, recording a 1-0 victory on home soil.

Nottingham Forest were then next up and booked their place at the final after their nail-biting semi-final second-leg with Sheffield United that ended in penalties.

Forest’s goalkeeper, the Congolese international Brice Samba, saved three of United’s penalties and gifted his side their boost into the final.
