Lampard helped Coventry win the play-offs.

In the final round, Middlesbrough had 64 points and still had a chance to enter the play-off group to win promotion to the Premier League in the 2025/26 season. However, Michael Carrick's army could not create a surprise at Coventry's home ground.

Coach Frank Lampard's team won 2-0 at home, thereby maintaining their position in the top 6 of the Championship, while forcing Middlesbrough to wait at least another season for a chance to return to the Premier League.

Lampard created a miracle with Coventry. Before the English coach arrived, Coventry was 17th, just 2 points above the relegation zone. However, what Lampard did proved to be a spectacular change. Now, Coventry are facing the opportunity to return to the Premier League after a 24-year wait.

Along with Coventry, the remaining 3 play-off tickets belong to Sheffield, Sunderland and Bristol. These 4 teams will be divided into 2 pairs, playing the first and second leg to choose 2 names to go to Wembley to play the "hundred million pound" match to win the last promotion ticket to the Premier League 2025/26.

Previously, the two direct promotion spots of the Championship this season belonged to Leeds (champion) and Burnley (runner-up). Meanwhile, Southampton, Leicester and Ipswich are the three clubs that had to return to the First Division after only one season playing in the Premier League.

In the race at the bottom of the table, Luton, Plymouth and Cardiff will have to play in League One due to poor performance.
