EHC Biel-Bienne host SC Bern at the Tissot Arena in Biel/Bienne, in the National League regular season. The game takes place on Saturday 21 November 2026 at 7.45 pm.
The story
The club was founded in 1939 by Heinrich Plüss as Eishockey Club Biel. It merged with EHC Tornado Biel in 1947. Its first games were played on natural ice, then at the Gurzelen from 1954. The artificial rink at the Längfeld opened in 1958.
The club reached the Nationalliga B in 1960 and the Nationalliga A in 1975. It won three Swiss championship titles there, in 1978, 1981 and 1983. Financial difficulties led to relegation in 1995, after 20 seasons in the top flight. It returned to the top division in 2008.
The team moved to the Tissot Arena for the 2015–16 season. In 2022–23 it knocked out SC Bern in the quarter-final. It then played the first National League final in its history, losing 3–4 to Genève-Servette.
The club has two names because Biel/Bienne sits on the border between the German and French languages. Normand Dupont holds the club’s scoring record, with more than 520 points. Olivier Anken played 628 Nationalliga A games. His number 30 shirt hangs under the arena roof.
The Tissot Arena opened in 2015. It brings together a 7,000-seat ice rink, a football stadium and a curling hall under one roof.
