Kongsvinger team overview
Kongsvinger return to Gjemselund Stadion looking to bounce back from a 4:2 defeat at Haugesund last weekend. Joacim Jonsson’s side raced into a two goal lead thanks to Rasmus Christiansen’s brace but the hosts fought back to secure an impressive comeback victory.
Before that setback, Kongsvinger were involved in a thrilling 4:4 draw against Strømsgodset. The visitors have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals in five of their last six games, while four of those matches also saw at least three goals scored.
High-scoring have been a recurring theme for Kongsvinger this season. Their last four league matches produced 23 goals, with the hosts scoring 11 times and conceding 12 in that period.
While strong in the forward areas, Kongsvinger have now conceded eight goals in their last two matches.
Despite their recent defensive issues, the home side remain second in the division, just one point behind pacesetters Stromsgodset.
Head coach Jonsson could make some changes after the defeat at Haugesund. Andreas Dybevik, Ludvig Langrekken and Daniel Job are among those likely to feature this weekend.
Herman Udnæs misses out after being sent off in last week’s defeat against Hangesund. Daniel Lysgard is expected to deputise.

Sogndal team overview
Sogndal arrive in Kongsvinger after claiming a much-needed 4:2 win against Egersund last weekend. Sebastian Pedersen scored twice, while Tuomas Pippola and Onni Helén also got their names on the scoresheet in fine win for Tore Andre Flo’s side.
Before that victory at Fosshaugane Campus, Sogndal had lost three of their last four games, while winning only one of their previous six league fixtures.
Like the home side, high-scoring matchups have been frequent for Flo’s side. BTTS and over 3.5 goals landed in seven of their eight most recent matchups.
Head coach Flo could keep faith with much of the same side that beat Egersund. Sebastian Pedersen should lead the attack after his double last weekend, while Tuomas Pippola and Kasper Skaanes are also expected to feature.
