The latest set of finalists for the 2020/21 ePremier League have been decided as Leeds United, Manchester United and West Bromwich Albion held their club playoffs on Tuesday.
Sixteen of the best players on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One for each club battled it out to represent their club in the finals next month.
Leeds United
Patrick Bamford was unable to stop the club's professional FIFA player Olle “Ollelito” Arbin from winning the XBox competition.
The Leeds striker was beaten 8-3 in the opening match of the club playoffs, but could take solace from the fact that Arbin went on to inflict heavier defeats in the latter stages.
Indeed, the Swede triumphed 17-1 in his semi-final before winning 8-2 in the final.
He will be joined at the ePL finals by Michael Fisher, who won the Playstation 4 playoffs.
