THE Championship play-off final is a nice appetiser to the Champions League showdown.
Fulham are hot favourites at 7-5 with Betfred to beat Aston Villa but as always it will be a tense affair at Wembley.
The world's richest game is now said to be worth up to £200million so imagine making the mistake that cost your side defeat.
Fulham have been exceptional since December, losing just four out of 30 and beating Villa 2-0 at Craven Cottage in that run.
However, Steve Bruce's underdogs are difficult to break down and in John Terry have the experience this stage needs.
Villa are 5-2 at Sky Bet to win in 90 minutes while a draw pays 9-4 at Black Type.
It's not an easy call but I'm siding with Fulham and with two thirds of their goals coming after half-time when rivals tire chasing the ball it could pay to back an interval stalemate at evens with McBookie.
Aleksandr Mitrovic is first-scorer favourite at 43-10 with Unibet but I prefer to be on young Ryan Sessegnon who hit 16 in the regular season. He is 6-1 at bet365.
Only three of the last 17 finals have seen both score and 12 out of 19 have been under 2.5 goals.
All four semi-final legs went under 2.5 and another here is likely at 8-13 with betfair.
Recommended Bets
- Fulham
- Sessegnon to score first
- HT draw
- Under 2.5 goals
