Sunderland have a chance to return to the Premier League. |
After a 1-2 home defeat in the first leg, Coventry could only draw 1-1 away to Sunderland. In the end, the "Black Cats" won a ticket to the promotion play-off final with a total score of 3-2.
Sheffield United await Sunderland at Wembley. The £100m play-off final for the final Premier League spot for the 2025/26 season is on 24 May. Burnley and Leeds have already secured direct promotion, while Southampton, Leicester and Ipswich have to return to the Championship from the Premier League.
Sunderland are facing the opportunity to return to the top flight of English football after nearly 10 years of waiting. The club from the Stadium of Light was relegated from the 2015/16 season, and even had to play in League One (the third division in the English football system) for quite a long time, from 2018 to 2022.
Meanwhile, Sheffield are also determined to return to the Premier League after a season of relegation. Coach Chris Wilder and his team had the opportunity to compete for direct promotion but stumbled at the crucial stage, and then had to face risks in the play-off series. With a cohesive style of play, "The Blades" are rated higher than their opponents in the upcoming match at Wembley.
As for Lampard, the former English player still has no luck with the play-off series. In 2019, he and Derby County reached the final but lost to Aston Villa.
