60,000 Expected For Play-Off Final

Over 60,000 fans are expected to see the League Two play-off final at Wembley on Saturday.

Bristol Rovers have sold all their 35,000 allocation and, after lengthy discussions over segregation issues, have been given an additional 5,000 seats. Shrewsbury have sold over 20,000 tickets so far and expect to come close to selling all their 25,000 allocation.

Both sides have selection problems with the Shrews seeing star midfielders Ben Davies and Dave Edwards miss out plus loan keeper Scott Shearer, who cannot play against his parent club. Rovers will be missing loan player Joe Jacobson after he exceeded the maximum allowed loan spell at the club.

The game is live on Sky Sports 3 on Saturday at 3pm, with Rovers currently the odds-on favourites for the tie.
