Coventry City take on Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium this evening (17 April) in the second leg of the Championship play-offs.

The clubs face one another for the third time in ten days as Mark Robins' side look to gain promotion back to the Premier League for the first time in over 20 years.

The Sky Blues haven't played in England's top-flight since being relegated at the end of the 2000/01 season, after finishing 19th with 34 points.

A win against the Teesside club would guarantee City's place in at Wembley - where they take on Luton Town after they beat Sunderland 3-2 on aggregate.

The win at Wembley on 27 May would represent the club's third promotion in five years - having been in League Two in 2017/18.

The tie is well-poised for Mark Robins' men following their 0-0 draw with Boro on Sunday.

Kick off is at 8pm.
