Finishing third, Norwich were drawn against arch enemies Ipswich whom they had already beaten twice this season. A 1-1 draw at Ipswich (Howson) was followed by a 3-1 home win helped by the sending off of Ipswich defender Berra and a penalty converted by Hoolahan. Jerome and Redmond completed the scoring

Norwich were thus to play Middlesbrough in the play-off final at Wembley on Monday 25th May 2015. Boro had beaten Norwich twice during the regular season, a 4-0 thrashing in the North East in the autumn and a 1-0 win at Carrow Road in late April. Norwich blitzed the Boro and scored two early goals (Jerome and Redmond) from which Boro never recovered, thus securing City's return to the Premier League.
