Venue: Würth völlurinn (2872 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Fylkir are in the 6th position while the guesting Víkingur Reykjavík worry at 9th.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Fylkir and Víkingur Reykjavík.

This stadium uses artifical turf, unlike Víkingur Reykjavík's home stadium. The visitors last 14 games on artifical turf have ended in 4 wins, 4 draws and 6 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.
