Five-Star Odd Blow Away Egersund in Vital 5-1 Skagerak Thriller
Odd Ballklubb delivered a commanding 5-1 victory over Egersund at Skagerak Arena on September 20 to strengthen their promotion credentials. Leading 2-1 at half-time, the hosts turned on the style after the break. It was the kind of result that can define a season.
A Night to Remember in Skien
Odd Ballklubb produced a dominant display at Skagerak Arena on September 20, brushing aside Egersund 5-1 in what was one of the most emphatic home performances of the 2026 season. The result — with Odd leading 2-1 at the break — sent a firm message to the rest of the 1. Divisjon promotion field.
The victory was a crucial one in the context of the title race, with both sides firmly in contention for promotion. Odd's superiority on the night was evident from the first whistle, and the second half turned into a one-sided affair as the hosts piled on the goals.
Promotion Push Gathering Momentum
The win keeps Odd firmly in the promotion conversation. The Skien club currently sit fifth in the table, and results like this — at their home fortress — are exactly what the promotion run-in demands.
Skagerak Arena proved once again why it is one of the most atmospheric grounds in Norwegian first-division football, with the home faithful in full voice throughout a memorable evening.
Three Home Games Still to Come
With the season entering its final stretch, Odd still have three home fixtures remaining at Skagerak Arena. Next up is a clash against Bryne on October 11, followed by Strømmen on October 18 and a final home outing against Sandnes Ulf on November 1.
Tickets for all remaining fixtures are on sale now through the club's official channels, with reduced prices available for seniors, students, and supporters with disabilities. Under-18s enter free of charge.
