Match preview
Varhaug host Sandnes ULF in Round 1 of the Norwegian Cup, entering the tie with notable positive momentum. The home side have won their last two outings—a 2-0 victory over Stabæk II and a 2-1 win at Åkra—and have demonstrated consistent attacking threat by scoring at least two goals in each of their past five matches.
