Kieran McKenna has been here before.
On two occasions, his Ipswich side have gone into the final Saturday at Portman Road knowing a win would guarantee promotion - and it is the same scenario this weekend.
Once again, there will be an incredible welcome into the stadium and there is a strong belief that Town will get the job done.
But it does feel different this time.
This is, by and large, a new group of players - one that has cost tens of millions of pounds more than McKenna's former heroes.
The narrative all season has been that this is a team that should go up, and one that will have failed if it does not.
There has, therefore, been a level of pressure that was not present during the previous run to the Premier League, and McKenna and his players have had to contend with that.
The football has been different, too. There have been some brilliant performances and results, but Town have also been a frustrating watch at times. It has certainly not been the gung-ho, swashbuckling approach of two years ago.
However, it is fair to say the team has improved throughout the course of the campaign and has put itself in a very strong position with one game left.
It should also be noted that the schedule has been demanding. Saturday's fixture will be their eighth league game in less than a month, with five of those matchdays coming away from home.
But credit to the Blues - they are in the driving seat and it will be some Bank Holiday weekend if they finish the job.
