National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Stal Rzeszów or Bytovia Bytów that keep their silverware dream alive.
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the 2. Liga East. This match was also played here at Stadion Stal. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Bytovia Bytów have had more rest.

A nice win for Stal Rzeszów last time playing, versus Garbarnia Krakow. That was also a home game and the match ended 5-1 with B. Poczobut, A. Prokić, P. Małecki, D. Michalik and K. Danielewicz scoring for the victors. As mentioned above, Rzeszów "killed" Garbarnia Krakow in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
