National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Fylkir or KR that keep their silverware dream alive.
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!
8 - 2 - 2 with 30-21. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for KR when playing on artifical turf like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. KR play their home games on grass so that's why we provide these numbers.
