Watch Derby County FC Vs. Aston Villa FC Live Stream: Start Time, EFL Promotion Playoff Final At Wembley

What may be the match with the single richest prize in the world, the English Football League Championship playoff final, takes place on Monday. The fifth-and-sixth place teams in England’s second tier battling it out on the hallowed ground of Wembley Stadium for the right to play next season in England’s big-money Premier League — a prize worth £160 million over three seasons, or more than $200 million to the winning club, according to the financial magazine Forbes.

Those two teams will be Derby County FC, who placed sixth in the 24-team EFL Championship in the 2018-2019 season and who have not played in the Premier League since 2007, and Aston Villa FC, who are just three seasons removed from their most recent, 29-year run in the top flight, according to the BBC. They meet in the high stakes match that will live stream from London.

The stakes may be even higher for Derby County, who have reached the Championship Final and now stand 90 minutes away from promotion to the Premier League under first-year manager Frank Lampard, the former Chelsea superstar. But according to ESPN, if Derby County fail to win the Wembley match, Lampard could be on his way back to Stamford Bridge where he is rumored to be the favorite to take over from current Manager Maurizio Sarri — even though Sarri has led Chelsea to a third-place finish and the UEFA Europa League final, which takes place later this week.

“It’s been an obvious link,” a reluctant Lampard told ESPN.

“Because of where we’re at, and my time at Chelsea, I understand the link. I don’t want to think about it. I don’t want to talk about it.”
