Fredrikstad FK is approaching their first match of the year against Lillestrøm on Saturday at LSK-Hallen, kick-off at 14:00. After two months without a match, we are immediately starting the training camp before the 2026 season. We have soon completed four weeks of hard training, and are entering a new phase of the pre-season. The next five weeks will see training matches, and the team will go on a new training camp in Spain, before the season starts on the first weekend of March. The first of seven training matches will be played next Saturday, when we meet the newly promoted cup winners from last year, Lillestrøm. Lillestrøm went undefeated through 1. divisjon and promoted strongly to Eliteserien 2026. In addition, they went all the way in the NM, where they among other things knocked us out on penalties, and took the NM-gold in December. We will face both Jerv and Swedish Elfsborg before we travel to the Spanish sun coast on February 7. In Spain, we will meet both Toronto and KFUM, while when we come home, we will play away against Aalesund and home against Odd before the season breaks loose with the NM-match and local derby at Stadion.
