Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Bærum & Kvik Halden face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the NM Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
This football field has artifical turf, which is not Kvik Halden's normal surface at their own ground. When playing on artifical turf Kvik Halden have performed like this: Played 17 matches earning 3 wins, 5 draws and 9 defeats with the goal difference 25-43 (scored/conceded).
