National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Kongsvinger or Strømmen that keep their silverware dream alive.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a 2. Division match only three days ago. That game was an away game at Senja, so at least Kongsvinger are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
