The training sessions have finished. The kits have been ironed. The managers have spoken. The countdown is on.
Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest have finished their preparations for their Europa League semi-final second leg encounter at Villa Park on Thursday night (20:00 BST).
Both clubs are looking to reach a major European final for the first time in over 40 years so, whichever way the result swings, it is sure to be a historic night in the Midlands.
Both managers rested first team players in the Premier League last weekend, with Unai Emery making seven changes against Tottenham and Vitor Pereira conjuring up eight changes against Chelsea.
Everything is pointing to both bosses fielding their best XIs, but both will naturally have to contend with some injury issues.
In Emery's news conference, he confirmed Amadou Onana will be absent after picking up a calf injury in the first leg last week. However, John McGinn will be back in contention after training normally following some hamstring tightness.
In Pereira's news conference, he said a late decision will be made on Morgan Gibbs-White's availability after picking up a head injury, which required stitches, last time out. However, Zach Abbott has been cleared to play following a different clash of heads. Murillo's return from a hamstring injury was also not fully ruled out.
