Kongsvinger form and stats

A job perfectly done for Kongsvinger last season as they secured promotion from 2. Division. With a grand total of 22 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 10 were in away matches.

Kongsvinger are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, one draw and five defeats. From a total of six matches.

It's a day of discovery for Kongsvinger as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Kongsvinger have played eight with the results W4-D2-L2 (win-draw-lost). In these games Kongsvinger has scored 15 goals and conceded 10 times.

Head 2 Head

Mjøndalen-Kongsvinger H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Mjøndalen six wins, Kongsvinger four wins, zero draws. seven of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
