Kongsvinger the Next Test as Odd Eye Top-Half Push
Odd Ballklubb's next home match at Skagerak Arena sees Kongsvinger arrive on 26 August for a 19:00 1. Division kick-off. The fixture carries added edge after Kongsvinger beat Odd at the same venue last season, and tickets are already on sale.
Kongsvinger Up Next at Skagerak Arena
With the 1. Division calendar entering its business end, Odd Ballklubb's next home fixture is already generating attention: Kongsvinger travel to Skien on Wednesday 26 August, with kick-off at 19:00. The match is listed as round 19 of the season and tickets are on sale now through TicketCo.
The two sides have recent history to draw on. The clubs met in the 1. Division on 23 August 2025 at Skagerak Arena, with Kongsvinger running out 2–1 winners in what the results archive records as a home defeat for Odd.
A Chance for Odd to Settle the Score
Odd currently occupy fifth place in the table with 28 points, and a win against Kongsvinger at home would keep them firmly in contention for a promotion play-off spot. The August schedule is demanding — Odd face away trips to Moss, Lyn and Ranheim either side of the Kongsvinger home game — making the Skagerak Arena fixture a critical three points in a congested run.
The 13,500-capacity stadium on the banks of the Skien waterfront will be hoping for a strong turnout as Odd push for their best league finish in recent seasons.
Upcoming Home Schedule
Beyond Kongsvinger, Skagerak Arena hosts further 1. Division action through the autumn, with Strømsgodset visiting on 6 September, Egersund on 20 September, Bryne on 11 October, Strømmen on 18 October and Sandnes Ulf rounding off the home programme on 1 November. Fans can plan their visits and buy tickets via the Odds Ballklubb website.
