Lincoln City will face Southend United in the playoff final. It will be 3rd time lucky for 1 of the teams. City attempt to erase the memory of the two failed playoff campaigns whereas Southend will try and win in the Millenium Stadium for the first time after two 2-0 defeats.

A Freddy Eastwood penalty shortly into the second half gave the Shrimps a 1-0 victory over Northampton. The Imps secured their place with a 2-1 aggregate win over Macclesfield. The two teams will face each other on Saturday in the Millenium Stadium.
