Championship play-offs: Derby County claim final spot to set up ‘Spygate’ reunion with Leeds United, West Brom take on Midlands rivals Aston Villa

Derby will face Leeds United in the Championship play-off semi-finals following their win over West Brom on the final day of the season to set up a ‘Spygate’ reunion.


There was controversy at Elland Road after Marcelo Bielsa confessed to telling a member of his staff to spy on the Derby team at their training ground in the lead up to a match between the two sides in January.

Leeds were fined £200,000 for the incident by the EFL but Bielsa claimed to have paid it out of his own pocket.
