National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Valur or Thróttur Vogar that keep their silverware dream alive.
9-1-2 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Thróttur Vogar when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those twelve matches are 32-16 (scored/conceded).
These are hectic days for the hometeam, as they had a game only three days ago in the Reykjavik Cup. This match was also played here at Origovöllurinn. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Thróttur Vogar have had more rest.
Valur form and stats
Last season their League Cup adventure ended in the quarter-finals.The home supporters can't complain about results here at Origovöllurinn as Valur have scored 18 goals to get 23 points from 11 games. The overall stats in the Pepsideild are 7-2-2 (wins-draws-losses).
It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Valur have performed as huge favourites like they are today: ten games found in the database showing ten Valur wins, zero draws and zero defeats.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Valur as they have a new game in only four days, a League Cup match thankfully also at home. Grotta are visiting.
A decent goal production from Valur in their home games so far, with 18 goals from 11 league matches. 12 goals have been conceded.
Thróttur Vogar form and stats
6-2-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Thróttur Vogar in their 2. Deild matches away.
Nobody expects Thróttur Vogar to collect anything from a game like this. The team has been David versus Goliath 25 times before, with the overall statistics of won ten, draw seven and lost eight. When defeated, six matches have been lost by two or more goals.
The Thróttur manager Gunnarsson has got the team scoring on the road, with 23 away goals in 11 league matches. Thróttur Vogar have conceded 13 goals in these away matches.
