Tottenham's ever-present Premier League status is at stake on Sunday.
There are nine different final-day outcomes across the final-day games involving Spurs and West Ham - but only one scenario sends the club to the Championship, and that is if Roberto De Zerbi's side lose at home to Everton and West Ham beat Leeds at home.
The odds are nearly 90 per cent in Tottenham's favour for survival, but this is Spurs, and their fans will be fearing the worst.
What will heighten those nerves is Tottenham's abysmal home record. Winless in their last 10 home league matches and having won just twice at home in the league this season (D6 L10), the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has become a place of dread and fear. The anxiety on Sunday will be like nothing ever seen before in N17.
With Spurs starting the day two points above 18th-placed West Ham and having a far superior goal difference over the Hammers, Tottenham only need a point to guarantee their safety against Everton.
When these two sides last met in late October, Spurs eased past the Toffees 3-0 at the Hill Dickinson Stadium to sit third in the Premier League and just five points behind leaders Arsenal.
It is a position that seems scarcely believable now.
In the space of seven months, Spurs have had three different head coaches, lost six games in a row for the first time in the club's history and have been on a 15-match winless league run.
Yet the worst could still come, with a first relegation in 49 years looming.
