    Coventry fans excited by prospect of Premier League promotion ahead of play-off final

    Luton Town play Coventry City in the Championship play-off final at Wembley for a place in the Premier League.

    Both clubs were in League Two as recently as 2018 and are looking to complete remarkable journeys with promotion to the top-flight, in what is often known as football’s “richest game”.

    Luton were a non-league club just nine years ago but their incredible rise through the divisions means they are just 90 minutes away from hosting the likes of Man City, Arsenal and Manchester United at Kenilworth Road next season.

    But Coventry’s story is just as compelling - under Mark Robins they have battled back from the brink and are now on the verge of returning to the Premier League for the first time since 2001.

    Only one team can make it on what is set to be a thrilling afternoon at Wembley. Follow live updates as Luton face Coventry in the Championship play-off final.

    HALF TIME! Luton 1-0 Coventry

    Luton are halfway there - now only 45 minutes from the Premier League.

    Despite the blow of Lockyer’s injury, Luton have been dominant are could have been out of sight.

    Jordan Clark’s goal is the difference and Coventry are still in this.

    Luton 1-0 Coventry

    45+6 mins: It would actually be a bit of a result for Coventry to get to half time only a goal down. Luton have been so much better, ever since Lockyer’s injury.

    Mark Robins’ side will need to improve after the break though.

    Luton 1-0 Coventry

    45+3 mins: Norton-Cuffy rouses Coventry with a run from the defence that needs three Luton players to take him down. Those Coventry fans in the shaded half at Wembley haven’t had much to shout about so far.

    Luton 1-0 Coventry

    43 mins: CHANCE! Coventry’s best moment by a mile! Horvath comes for a cross from the left but gets it all wrong. Hamer arrives at the back post but can’t keep his volley down!

    That was Coventry’s first shot of the match.

    NO GOAL! Luton 1-0 Coventry

    41 mins: Luton have the ball in the net for the third time - but it’s ruled out again!

    It’s the right call though: Doughty roamed forward and had the chance to strike at goal. It’s blocked and as a Coventry defender attempts to hack clear, it deflects in off of Adebayo’s arm.

    Luton 1-0 Coventry

    37 mins: Luton are crossing on sight at the moment and are winning every ball - this time Morris gets a touch on a ball from the right, but can’t make a good enough connection to trouble goalkeeper Wilson.

    Luton 1-0 Coventry

    36 mins: Norton-Cuffy gets his first chance to get forward and run at the Luton defence but Doughty stands his ground and times his tackle well.
