Stalemate at Gjemselund Stadion?
Previous meeting
The last 1. Division 2026 matchup ended in a 2-2 draw at Strømmen's home stadium, which was one of the most exciting games of the 1. Division season to date. While Sunday's matchup could also be a match of twists and turns, the gap in the league table suggests otherwise.
Tactical battle
Kongsvinger boss Johan Peter Vennberg has his side set up to play a high-tempo, wide and attacking 4-3-3 system where the wide runners can cut in on the opponents and press them back in numbers. Svein Roger Pettersen has tried to counter this style with a pragmatic setup that is compact and organized, set up to absorb the pressure Kongsvinger will put them under before springing into action.
Stats and prediction
- Kongsvinger have scored 3.29 goals per home game, conceding just 1.43 in return, while Strømmen are the leaky side on the road in the 1. Division 2026.
- The odds favor the home team, but the most likely outcome is Kongsvinger to win and over 2.5 goals.
- There is also a good chance for both teams to score, which is priced at 1.44.
