National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Aalborg Freja or Brøndby that keep their silverware dream alive.
Brøndby could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Superliga game only four sleeps ago.
Aalborg Freja form and stats
Last season, Aalborg's Landspokal Cup journey ended in the 1st round.Aalborg Freja's struggle is real here at Aalborg Portland Park with only 7 points collected from 12 Denmark Series Group 3 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-4-7. On the other hand, in the Landspokal Cup, Aalborg Freja has performed like this (both home and away): 2 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses. With seven home Denmark Series Group 3 games in a row without a win, the Aalborg fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Aabyhoj game long ago, can be stopped today.
The spoils were shared in Aalborg's previous game, also at home. Visiting Lyseng (after extra-time, 5-4 on penalties) travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline.
