Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Keflavík & Magni face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the League Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
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.
Keflavík form and stats
Last season their League Cup adventure ended in the group stage.When playing at home in the Inkasso-Deildin, Keflavík have managed 6 wins, 1 draw and suffered 4 defeats from 11 games. On the other hand, in the League Cup, Keflavík has performed like this (both home and away): 2 wins, 0 draws and 1 loss. After failing to beat Magni here at Reykjaneshöllin, Keflavík has put together a very nice winning streak on their own turf with four wins in a row.
A strong away win for Keflavík against KA the last match. Nobody expected Keflavík to beat KA in the last match, but sometimes David beats Goliath. Before that game, the home loss against Vikingur Reykjavik with the scoreline 0-2.

Magni form and stats
Last season their League Cup adventure ended in the group stage.The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Magni so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 3-1-7 (win-draw-lose).
Two away games in a row for Magni, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-8 versus Fylkir in the League Cup. A loss against Vikingur Reykjavik was the result prior to that, in a League Cup home game.
Magni lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-8 beating and focus on this one.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Magni manager S. Steingrímsson as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against KA.
Magni have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 11 league away games 13 goals have been scored. Magni are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 13 goals in these matches.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last two matches): Keflavík one win, zero draws and Magni one victory. As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), zero games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
