It's a fresh beginning in Obos-Ligaen - the first fixture of the season. Read our full preview and see how Mjøndalen and Kongsvinger did in their pre-season matches!
Mjøndalen form and stats
Disaster struck Mjøndalen last season as they could not defend their status as a Eliteserien team. With 16 defeats from 30 games, and only 4 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Mjøndalen are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W2 D5 L8.
It's been an intense period of training leading up to this game for Mjøndalen, who have participated in seven training matches. Mjøndalen have won 2 of these, drawn 0 and were beaten in 5 games.
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).Mjøndalen missing players
