Not only will Norwich City be out to spoil Ipswich Town's promotion quest, but the Canaries will be eager to prevent their arch rivals from completing a rare East Anglian derby double.
The two teams collide at Carrow Road in a mammoth Championship fixture on Saturday lunchtime and there is a lot more than bragging rights at stake.
The idea that Norwich still possess a mathematical chance of achieving a play-off berth is testatment to the miraculous work Philippe Clement has overseen since being named Liam Manning's successor.
Eight points adrift of the top six, it's likely going to require an extraordinary sequence of results for Norwich to prolong their season beyond 2nd May, but Clement's outfit will be eager to finish the campaign strong as the building blocks are set for next year.
Ipswich, on the other hand, have been able to capitalise on the mistakes of Middlesbrough and Millwall to climb into the top two.
The Tractor Boys have two games in hand on their promotion rivals, but they would much rather have points on the board as they look to secure an immediate return to the Premier League.
When did Ipswich last complete the league double over Norwich?
You would have to rewind back to the 1992/93 season for the last time Ipswich completed the league double over Norwich.
Second half goals from Chris Kiwomya and Neil Thompson ensured the Tractor Boys prevailed at Carrow Road in December 1992, before John Lyall's men triumphed again in the next East Anglian derby as a brace from Jason Dozzell helped Ipswich to a 3-1 win in April 1993.
In the 33 years since, Norwich have achieved the league double over Ipswich on four occasions: 1994/95 (Premier League), 2003/04 (Division 1), 2010/11 (Championship) and 2014/15 (Championship).
Ipswich were 3-1 victors in the reverse meeting back in October at Portman Road courtesy of goals from Cedric Kipre, Jaden Philogene and Jack Clarke.
