Hull City vs Middlesbrough: Follow EFL Championship play-off final live

Hull City will battle against Middlesbrough in the EFL Championship play-offs final at Wemble Stadium, Afrik Foot reports.

The Tigers defeated Millwall with an aggregate 2-0 score across two legs, while Middlesbrough qualified most dramatically.

Boro were defeated in the semi-final by Southampton, but reported seeing a Southampton analyst near Middlesbrough’s training ground, spying on their team preparations.

The EFL investigated, and Southampton confessed to being guilty of the charges. As such, Middlesbrough were sent to the final, while the Saints were disqualified and docked four points ahead of the 2026/2027 Championship campaign.

Hull City and Middlesbrough have met twice this season. The first leg at Hull’s MKM Stadium back in December ended in a 4-1 win for Boro, while the second leg was a narrow 1-0 victory for the Tigers at the Riverside Stadium, 24 days after the first game was played.

Hull City escaped relegation to the Sky Bet League One last season on goal difference before Sergej Jakirovic came in. The Bosnian manager breathed life into the four-time Sky Bet League One winners, spending a measly €7.33m.

90 minutes separate the 49-year-old from making history by sealing a Premier League return for the first time in a decade for Hull City.

Kick-off is slated for 3:30 WAT at Wembley Stadium.
