National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Sandviken or Jönköpings Södra that keep their silverware dream alive.
It's no vacation for neither Sandviken nor Jönköpings Södra as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Jönköpings Södra have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 6-4-3 (win-draw-loss) from 13 matches.
Sandviken form and stats
Sandviken have reached this Svenska Cupen stage through battling and winning against Kvarnsveden. Last season their Svenska Cupen adventure ended in the group stage.5 victories, 4 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Sandviken have to build on here at Arena Jernvallen in the Division 1: North.
It's back home for Sandviken, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Karlslund away with the result 3-1. L. Englund (2) and N. Mohammed found the net in that victory. Previous to that game, a Division 1: North home match hosting Brommapojkarna in a game that was won 1-0.
The manager P. Olsson will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Team Thoren in only four days.
The Sandviken manager P. Olsson has got the team scoring with 22 from 10 home games in the league. Sandviken's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 13 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Jönköpings Södra form and stats
They also participated in Svenska Cupen last season. This ended in the group stage.Playing away, Jönköpings Södra have won 3 games, drawn 1 and suffered 5 defeats in the Superettan this season.
Jönköpings are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 2-2 draw at Västerås SK. Before that, Jönköpings secured a home win against Oster with the score 4-1.
Drawing 2-2 against Västerås SK after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager A. Brännström needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.
After this away game Jönköpings Södra return home for a Superettan game against Halmstad. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Jönköpings find the net regularly in their away games. 13 goals from 9 away fixtures in the league. Jönköpings's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 17 goals from these trips.
