Premier League: Leeds United, Southampton Battle For Promotion In ‘football’s Richest Match’

Amazon Fire TV Stick: Leeds United and Southampton F.C. are set to battle it out for promotion in the upcoming English Football League (EFL) Championship final scheduled to be held at Wembley Stadium here on Sunday.

With the result dictating promotion into the prestigious Premier League, the matchup is positioned as "football’s richest match", due to the commercial and media benefits that come with securing promotion. Independent reports say that the winning club is likely to be richer by almost $470m due to additional revenue streams, including TV deals and sponsorships.

Booking their place with a convincing 3-1 victory over West Brom, Southampton will be relying on striker Adam Armstrong to once again fire on all cylinders. With a late brace in the return fixture putting the Saints within touching distance of a return back to the Premier League, all eyes will be on the English talisman to once again deliver the goods on the big stage.
