Scotland and Slovakia will put their Euro 2020 qualifying hopes to one side on Sunday when they face off in a UEFA Nations League clash at Hampden Park.
Both sides progressed from their playoff semi-finals on Thursday to stay on course for next summer's European Championship finals.
All focus now switches to this Group B2 clash in Glasgow as Scotland look to tighten their grip on top spot against bottom side Slovakia.
Match preview
Scotland are now just one game away from qualifying for a major tournament for the first time since 1998 thanks to their penalty-shootout win over Israel.
Kenny McLean scored the decisive spot-kick to set up a one-off tie with Serbia - 2-1 winners over Norway in their semi-final - in Belgrade next month.
Steve Clarke will inevitably have one eye on that biggest game in a generation for Scotland, and he will want to carry some momentum into the contest.
Scotland have now gone six games without defeat, winning five of those, including a 2-1 victory over Czech Republic in their most recent Nations League match.
The Czechs had to field an entirely new squad after a coronavirus outbreak in their campaign, but Clarke's men made hard work of getting the job done in Olomouc.
Get the job done they did, though, to make it four points from their first two Group B2 matches, having also played out a 1-1 draw with Israel a few days beforehand.
Slovakia are bottom of the four-team group following a 3-1 loss to a full-strength Czech Republic and a 1-1 draw in Israel.
Pavel Hapal's men face relegation to League C as things stand, but they do at least remain on course for a place at Euro 2016 after beating Republic of Ireland in their playoff semi.
The hosts survived a few scares in the 120-minute contest before winning the penalty shootout, with Northern Ireland now standing between them and a place in the tournament finals.
Slovakia are without a win in normal time in six of their last seven matches, whereas Scotland are now unbeaten in four at home, winning three of those.
These nations have only met on two previous occasions, with those meetings coming in World Cup 2018 qualifying.
Scotland lost the away match 3-0 but were 1-0 winners at Hampden Park 12 months later through Martin Skrtel's own goal in the final minute of the game.

Team News
Scotland were hit with a major blow ahead of the Israel match as Stuart Armstrong tested positive for coronavirus.
Not only did the Southampton midfielder have to self-isolate, so did Kieran Tierney and Ryan Christie after coming into close contact with him.
All three remain absent for the Nations League double-header with Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
Clarke stuck with his three-man backline against Israel and that is likely to remain the case on Sunday, though changes can be expected in terms of personnel.
Slovakia have also been hard hit by coronavirus cases, with Inter Milan defender Milan Skriniar having to pull out of the squad.
Like opposite number Clarke, Hapal is expected to bring in some fresh legs for this match at Hampden Park.
Robert Mak and Lukas Haraslin are among those in contention to return to the XI after finding themselves on the bench in midweek.
Scotland possible starting lineup:
Marshall; Porteous, Cooper, Gallagher; Patterson, McGregor, McTominay, Fraser; McGinn, Dykes, Shankland
Slovakia possible starting lineup:
Rodak; Pekarik, Vavro, Valjent, Mazan; Kucka, Hrosovsky, Hamsik; Mak, Duda, Haraslin
We say: Scotland 1-1 Slovakia
Scotland and Slovakia went the distance in their respective penalty-shootout victories over Israel and Republic of Ireland on Thursday.
The visitors have started their UEFA Nations League campaign slowly but we can see them picking up a point in Glasgow this weekend.
