The 10 clubs from the 1. Deild entered in the last 16, with clubs from lower tiers entering in the three preliminary rounds. Teams played one-legged matches. In case of a draw, a penalty shoot-out took place (there were no replays, unlike in previous years). Valur won their fifth Icelandic Cup, beating Keflavík in the final, and so qualifying for Europe.
