National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Fram or Jerv that keep their silverware dream alive.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Fram form and stats
Fram have not come this way in the NM Cup without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating Ørn Horten. Last season, Fram's NM Cup journey ended in the 2nd round.Fram's previous game was also played at home, ending 3-2 versus Pors Grenland. The home side are looking to build on that result.
Prior to that, an away loss at Sprint-Jeløy in the 3. Division - Group 4.Jerv form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Express in order to reach 2nd round of NM Cup. Last season their NM Cup adventure ended in the 2nd round.The story so far for the visiting team on their Eliteserien travels is 0 wins, 0 draws and 4 defeats.
Home advantage was not enough for Jerv in their previous game as they lost hosting HamKam, 1-2. The attacker Şimşir got a match rating of 7.44 in that game. Şimşir served one assist, hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 29 successful passes (of 33 total).
A loss against Sarpsborg 08 was the result prior to that, in a Eliteserien home game.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Jerv manager Sandstø as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Molde.
Jerv are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 4 away games. The Jerv manager Sandstø has some worries about the defense as 10 goals have been conceded in these travels.
