Dozens of Ipswich Town fans have already signed up to go to Germany once again next year to support Fortuna Dusseldorf.
A group of Blues supporters are set to go to Dusseldorf in March, continuing a special friendship between Town and Fortuna Dusseldorf fans.
The fanbases of the two clubs have had a special link ever since Fortuna fans came over the Suffolk in 2006 for an Ipswich game.
Ipswich fans are planning to go over for the Fortuna Dusseldorf vs Greuther Fürth match at Merkur Spiel-Arena, set to be played on March 1, which coincides with the FA Cup fifth round- which Town could be due to play in.

Nathan Parris, who is organising the trip, said: "Last year was fantastic - 160 Town fans went.
"It's a fantastic time. Town fans take over some of the bars, it's incredible.
"Everyone is really looking forward to next year's trip, our group chat is in full flow for it. We hope to make this next trip better than last year but it'll be hard to beat.

"We have around 80 people so far, and that number is just going to keep going up."
Mr Parris encouraged any interested Blues fans to get in touch via the Facebook page.
He added: "If you haven't been on a trip previously, I would highly recommend it. It's always a great weekend."
Tickets are to be sorted through contacts over in Germany so all Town fans can sit together for the match, with people needing to book separate accommodation and travel, but recommendations are posted in the group chat once you register your interest.
Fortuna fans often come over for an Ipswich game every season in a show of mutual friendship between the clubs' fanbases.
