We find out tonight whether Aston Villa or Middlesbrough will meet Fulham in the play-off final at Wembley AKA the ‘richest game in football’ !!

Boro will need to do a ‘Fulham’ and turn over their first leg 1-0 deficit but it’s much harder for them with them now meeting The Villains on their home soil.

Villa’s manager Steve Bruce is confident home advantage will count for plenty. He said: “We’re at Villa Park, I’m sure it’ll be rocking, it should be a wonderful atmosphere.

“We’ve got an advantage, the crowd can hopefully play their part, but it’s a big tie still ahead.”

However, the Boro faithful will take comfort from the fact they won 2-0 here in the regular season and a similar scoreline will get the job done.

Middlesbrough manager Tony Pulis told BBC Radio Tees: “I’m not concerned about Aston Villa, I’m more concerned about us and the way we play and what we’re trying to achieve.

“That’s the most important thing – that we turn up and we’re a little bit more clinical in the final third – that was the only real negative, apart from conceding from a set play, of the game on Saturday.

“The most important thing is them clearing their minds, making sure they’re focused and ready to go and they know their jobs and do their jobs.”
