Leeds United Under-21s are in action at Elland Road on Monday evening (7pm), facing Aston Villa Under-21s in the end of season play-offs.

The winners of this tie will progress to the final, where they will face either West Bromwich Albion Under-21s or Nottingham Forest Under-21s. That clash is also taking place on Monday evening, getting underway at the same time. 

The Whites missed out on promotion to Division 1 on the final day of the Division 2 season. Just a point was needed away at West Brom, but following defeat, Southampton were crowned champions and claimed the title after on goal-difference by just two goals. 

Villa had a battle to make the play-offs but did so well, securing three wins in their final five matches to take 5th spot, finishing three points above 6th placed Norwich City.
