Manchester United Women's European destiny will be decided on Thursday, when we host Brann at Leigh Sports Village.
The UEFA Champions League third-round qualifier is poised on a knife edge, with Ingrid Stenevik's header providing the Norwegians with a narrow advantage following the first leg in Bergen.
But Marc Skinner's side have flown out of the blocks in the Barclays WSL, scoring nine times in our opening two games, and will hope that firepower can see us into the competition's league phase.
Failure to do so would not spell the end of our continental hopes, although we would drop into the Europa Cup - a new competition for the 2025/26 season.
With the scene set, let's take a deeper look at Thursday's must-watch encounter, which is being shown live on MUTV, if you can't make it to Leigh...
HOW TO WATCH AND FOLLOW
Tickets are still available for Thursday's clash, which kicks off at 19:00 BST.
All supporters can access seats here, with pricing at £12 for adults and £6 for under-16s and over-66s.
Can't make it? Not to worry. MUTV will be showing the game live, to subscribers (except those based in Norway), from 18:45 BST.
WHAT'S AT STAKE?
United are bidding to qualify for the competition's inaugural league phase, which operates in a similar format to the men's tournament, but with 18 teams and six matches per club.
Arsenal, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Benfica, Chelsea, Juventus, Lyon, Paris Saint-Germain and Wolfsburg have already booked their spots, and the remaining nine teams are being decided via the Champions and League qualifying paths.
The Reds will progress if we can overturn the one-goal deficit from the first leg, but extra-time and penalties could be required, should the aggregate score be level after 90 and then 120 minutes.
Should United lose, we will enter the Women's Europa Cup - a two-legged knockout tournament - at the second qualifying round in October.
TEAM NEWS
We are awaiting an update on the condition of Millie Turner, who was stretchered off during the second half of Sunday's 5-1 victory at London City Lionesses.
In happier news, Fridolina Rolfo made her United bow and teed up Jess Park for her maiden Reds strike in the closing stages at Hayes Lane.
Gabby George also returned as a late substitute, while Rachel Williams was named on the bench.
Assuming there are no fresh injury issues this week, that would leave Simi Awujo, Hannah Blundell and Leah Galton as the main absentees, although Blundell stepped up her return last week when playing for the Under-21s.
FORM GUIDE
United's impressive start to the domestic season continued on Sunday, as big-spending London City Lionesses were put to the sword.
Melvine Malard found the net twice for the second league game in succession, while Maya Le Tissier, Jayde Riviere and Park were also on the scoresheet. Former Reds striker Nikita Parris registered a consolation for the home side.
Brann extended their winning run to 12 matches in all competitions, as Brenna Lovera's brace dispatched Honefoss.
The Norwegians are unbeaten since June - conceding just twice in that time - and sit seven points clear at the summit of the Toppserien, which runs from March to November.
