This field uses the playing surface grass, unlike Fylkir's home arena. The former 17 games by the away side on grass have seen 1 win, 4 draws and 12 losses.

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.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
