Who is in the Championship, League One, and League Two play-off finals?

Battling it out for a place in the Premier League next season will Brentford and Swansea City.

Thomas Frank’s men booked their place in the final after beating Bournemouth last week, while the Swans edged out Barnsley over two legs.

In League One, Blackpool will play Lincoln City, with the two sides dispatching of Oxford United and Sunderland respectively in the semi-finals.

The vital clash in League Two sees Morecambe come up against Newport County, with the former beating Tranmere Rovers in the last round, and the latter beating Forest Green Rovers to book their place in the final.
