National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Víkingur Reykjavík or KR that keep their silverware dream alive.
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.
Víkingur Reykjavík and KR should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
