Leeds United's promotion dreams remained on track on Saturday with a 3-1 win at Blackburn Rovers.
Goals from Patrick Bamford, Kalvin Phillips and Mateusz Klich gave Marcelo Bielsa's men a second win since the Championship restarted last weekend, extending their lead over second-placed West Brom to four points in the process.
With four of the nine post-restart fixtures completed, Leeds and their rivals are beginning to adjust to the 'new normal' routine of social distancing, regular COVID-19 testing and playing in front of cardboard cutouts.
Leeds can usually be relied upon to be backed by a bumper away following at Ewood Park, with almost 8,000 fans taking their place there last season, as Whites supporters made up more than a third of total capacity.
It was a different story on Saturday, but Bielsa's side were able to focus on the task at hand and strengthen their grip on top spot.
Despite this, Klich, who clocked up an assist to go with his second-half strike, insists he is missing the presence of Leeds' passionate following on a matchday.
"It's bad," he said following the win over Rovers. "I hope next season we can start at least with some of the fans.
"In Poland right now it's 25 per cent stadium capacity allowed in the stands, so I hope this is the last five games without fans in the stands, because it's not really football. But obviously you have to finish the league."
Saturday's victory means that Leeds know ten points from their final five matches will guarantee Premier League football, but Klich insists that no-one in the dressing room is getting carried away just yet.
"Obviously, we are very happy, but it's not over yet," he continue. "We can't be overly happy about this game because there's still five games to go, 15 points to get. Everyone knows this league isn't easy and its going to be very demanding to the last game so we have to stay focused like we've been today. That's our goal for the next couple of games."
On a personal level, Klich is five games away from clocking up a second consecutive ever-present season, with his start at Ewood Park the 89th Championship or playoff match he has started in a row.
"I feel good," he said when asked about his physical condition since the restart. "You know when you keep winning games and you're in first place, you don't really feel tired. You want to play next game after next game.
"I don't really feel tired yet. I'm probably going to feel it after the season, with a very short break and I will need to recharge my batteries. But I feel ok, I've not had any injuries so I hope I can play as much as I can.
"It's a hard achievement to be fair, playing two seasons in the Championship. It's 92 league games in a row. It's very demanding, a very physical league and to be fair before Leeds I never thought I was able to do it, but as you can see I'm ok. It's doable."
