Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Fjölnir & ÍR face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Iceland Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
The visiting ÍR played their last game only three days ago, a 2. Deild match.
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

In their previous game, the manager A. Arnarsson led his Fjölnir to a defeat in the Inkasso-Deildin match away at Fram. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Extra völlurinn.
