Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Kría & Fjölnir face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Iceland Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
This field has artifical turf, which is not Fjölnir's everyday surface at their own field. When playing on artifical turf Fjölnir have performed like this: Played ten matches taking 3 wins, 0 draws and 7 defeats with the goal stats 12-29 (scored/conceded).
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.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Kría form and stats
Kría have not come this way in the Iceland Cup without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating KB. Kría was eliminated in the 1st round last season in the Iceland Cup.Kría are returning here after visiting KB in a Iceland Cup fixture and winning with a 4-2 scoreline.
A League Cup C defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at KH.Fjölnir form and stats
Fjölnir was sent out of Iceland Cup in the 1st round last season.Playing away, Fjölnir have won 4 games, drawn 2 and suffered 5 defeats in the Inkasso-Deildin this season.
Two away matches in a row for Fjölnir, whose manager Jökulsson could celebrate last time after the League Cup win against Fylkir.
The match before that was the League Cup-duel against Keflavik, a home loss (4-5).
Fjölnir have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 23 goals from 11 away matches. The Fjölnir manager Jökulsson has some worries about the defense as 23 goals have been conceded in these travels.
