Gianfranco Zola would probably prefer a reunion with his good friend Gus Poyet at Wembley but would you rather shoot down Ian Holloway's Eagles in the play-off final?

Zola and Poyet spent several years together at Chelsea and have remained close, so it was hardly surprising when yesterday the Watford head coach said: "I will text Gus. I am going to be very supportive towards him."

Zola will be watching tonight's play-off semi-final second leg as part of the Sky Sports team at the Amex Stadium.

Brighton and Hove Albion and Crystal Palace go into the second leg level after Friday's goalless draw.

Manuel Almunia insists he does not have a prefered team he would like to face in the Championship play-off final, which will be held at Wembley in two weeks time.

"They are both strong teams," Almunia said. "I watched the game the other day and Crystal Palace are a very strong side with a lot of quality. Brighton are very similar to us but either team would be very hard to face. We can just relax and enjoy watching their match."

So who would you prefer to face? Would it be Poyet's free-flowing Brighton or Palace, whose manager Holloway angered Watford supporters with his criticism of the Hornets in February?

If the form table is to be believed, then it will be Brighton. 

Poyet's men and Charlton were the only sides in the division who were unbeaten in the last six league fixtures - winning four and drawing two of those games.

Crystal Palace were 18th in the form table at the end of the regular season - their win on the final day was their first in ten matches.
