Daniel Farke faces a potential team selection problem as he prepares his Leeds United team for the second leg of their play-off semi-final against Norwich City.
Both teams are facing late injury tests for some of their star players, before the Championship play-off encounter.
The winner of such a tie has the chance to return to the promised land of the Premier League, while the others will be condemned to another year in the Championship.
Norwich held the Whites to a 0-0 draw at Carrow Road, giving Daniel Farke something to work with for the second leg.
Leeds have home advantage, playing in front of the Elland Road faithful on Thursday evening, which could give the first-team squad a huge boost.
While both teams have the Wembley arch firmly in their sights, some key players may miss out on the crunch match through injury.
Leeds United injury news
Leeds boss Daniel Farke could have three key players missing from his side’s clash with Norwich on Thursday evening.
The Yorkshire outfit were boosted by the return of Dan James and Connor Roberts in the first leg of the play-off semi-final.
However, Patrick Bamford missed out yet again through a knee injury that has kept him sidelined since April.
There is uncertainty surrounding whether the striker will be fit in time, though Leeds Live claim that he is set to miss out on a return.
The duo of Pascal Struijk and Stuart Dallas have both seen their season come to a halt due to injury.
Norwich City injury latest
Norwich City boss David Wagner is looking to win another promotion via the play-offs, having masterminded Huddersfield Town’s rise to the Premier League in 2017.
While a draw at Carrow Road may be deemed a positive result for the Canaries, the Elland Road crowd will be a tough one to tame.
Norwich could be missing as many as four players for their trip to Yorkshire on Thursday evening, with injury issues across their front line in particular.
Josh Sargent and Ashley Barnes are both doubts, while Liam Gibbs and Onel Hernandez saw their campaign ended early.
Leeds vs Norwich preview
The Wembley arch awaits for one of Leeds or Norwich at the end of their clash on Thursday night, which will set up a huge chance to return to the top flight.
For both teams, it offers a lifeline to their promotion hopes, a chance to keep hold of their better players and keep progressing.
Those condemned to the second tier will have to pick themselves up again, while possibly losing some of their stars along the way.
While the Whites and the Canaries will have wanted a lead heading into the second leg, a level scoreline still gives both a chance to win.
Leeds will need the crowd to add that extra presence and force the tie in their favour, though if nerves start to jangle, the play-off ghosts of old could come back to haunt them yet again.
