Leyton Orient manager Martin Ling has predicted a Leeds United v Southend United play-off final:

“Leeds are the team entering the League One play-offs in the best form and they are my tip to join Swansea and Nottingham Forest in the Championship next season.

“Stick their 15 points back on and Gary McAllister’s side would be 11 points superior to Doncaster and Carlisle, who will be smarting after they way their seasons ended. In fact, I’d take Southend to beat Donny in the other semi final.

“I just feel that Leeds and Southend will be in better heart than the other two sides and the semi finals come around very quickly.”

Following today’s Leeds United victory over Gillingham we have leap-frogged Southend United in the final League table and finished fifth. This means we meet Carlisle United in the play-offs. Here are the details:

The Elland Road tie will be played at on Monday May 12 at 7.45pm with the away leg at Brunton Park on Thursday May 15, 7.45pm.

Doncaster Rovers meet Southend in the other play-off semi-final.
