National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's K. Nove Mesto or Dolny Kubin that keep their silverware dream alive.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a 2. Liga game only three days ago.
K. Nove Mesto form and stats
This is not the first game this season in the Slovakia Cup for K. Nove Mesto, as the manager Sedúch led his troops to eliminate Hamsik Academy and Spartak Radostka, and reach the 3rd Round. Mesto was eliminated in the 3rd round last season in the Slovakia Cup.A good away victory last time out for K. Nove Mesto, who won 9-1 against Liptovsky Hradok. As mentioned above, Mesto "killed" Liptovsky Hradok in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
Heartbreak before that as K. Nove Mesto lost 0-3 at Tatran Krasno's place.There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for K. Nove Mesto as they are travelling to their away game against Kovacova in the 4. liga: Center. That match is four days after this one.
Dolny Kubin form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Tatran Turzovka in order to reach 3rd round of Slovakia Cup. Last season their Slovakia Cup adventure ended in the 4th round.The story so far for the visiting team on their 2. Liga travels is 1 win, 0 draws and 3 defeats.
The regulars enjoyed Dolny Kubin's previous match versus Samorin, a 2-0 win played at home.
It was a 2. Liga defeat before that one as the away game against Spartak Myjava wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Dolny manager Pecko as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Rača.
The Dolny Kubin manager Pecko has some worries about the defense as 9 goals have been conceded in these travels.
