On Sky

Its the EFL trophy final between two league one clubs. With over 70,000 fans expected it’ll be a good day out.

The U’s were runners up last season and will be looking to go one better this time round.

While the Sky Blues have had a torrid time falling through the leagues and will surely be playing league 2 football next season. However the team will want to do well for their fans on the big day.
