Egersund Up Next as Odd Prepare for Skagerak Run-In
Odd Ballklubb return to Skagerak Arena on 20 September to face Egersund in round 23 of 1. Divisjon. The home side head into the fixture with a bolstered squad after completing loan deals for Swedish goalkeeper Tim Erlandsson and sending Julian Gunnerød to Notodden.
Egersund Bound: Odd's Next Home Date
With the 1–1 draw against Strømsgodset barely 48 hours old, attention at Skagerak Arena is already turning to the next fixture. Odd host Egersund on Sunday 20 September — round 23 of 1. Divisjon — with kick-off scheduled for 17:00 local time. The match represents another opportunity for Odd to bank crucial points at their Skien fortress as the Norwegian first division season reaches its business end.
Egersund arrive as the visitors, and supporters can already purchase tickets through the official channels at odd.no.
Reinforcements in Place for the Run-In
Odd head into the final weeks of the season with fresh faces in the squad. Swedish goalkeeper Tim Erlandsson, 29, has signed a loan deal from IF Elfsborg in Allsvenskan running until the end of the 2026 campaign and will wear the number-1 shirt. The arrival adds experienced cover between the posts as Odd push for their seasonal objectives.
Meanwhile, forward Julian Gunnerød has moved in the opposite direction, joining Notodden on loan for the remainder of the season through the national loan scheme.
Eyes on the Table
With four more home games still to be played at Skagerak Arena before the season closes — including fixtures against Bryne, Strømmen and Sandnes Ulf — the 13,500-capacity ground in Skien remains central to Odd's ambitions. The club and stadium will be hoping that the fan-friendly initiatives seen around the Strømsgodset match, such as free buses and discounted entry, continue to draw strong crowds for the run-in.
