This could be an interesting match as Leiknir Reykjavík have their presumed home advantage while KR are ahead 3 points in the Pepsideild table.
- Leiknir Reykjavík have the fewest matches over the total-line (1) in Pepsideild
- KR have the most scored goals in the first half (9) in Pepsideild
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.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting KR have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 7-4-3 (win-draw-loss) from 14 matches.
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.
