While Southampton held their nerve to beat West Brom in the other play-off semifinal.
And both teams will be desperate to secure promotion to England‘s top division by winning the Wembley showpiece.
But there is also a huge prize pot up for grabs for whoever is victorious in the ‘richest game in football‘.
What is the Championship play-off final 2024 prize money?
Clubs don’t earn money directly for winning the Championship play-off final, but the winning team will receive a lot of financial benefits in the upcoming season.
Sports financial analysts revealed that promotion will mean an increase in revenue of approximately £135million over the next three seasons.
However, that could rise £265m over five years if the club avoids relegation in their first season.
A majority of that money is accumulated through TV commercial payments as each club receives an equal payment of £31m just for being in the league.
Furthermore, the successful team will likely get around £60m from international agreements as well as £1.2m for every game shown live on TV.
When is the Championship play-off final 2024?
Leeds vs Southampton will take place on Sunday, May 26.
Kick-off will be at 3pm BST.
Wembley Stadium will host and it can host approximately 90,000 passionate fans.
