Ove Christensen (born March 26, 1950) is an Association football manager, who most recently was the head coach of Vendsyssel FF in the Danish 1st Division. He has managed a number of Danish Superliga clubs, and won the Danish women's championship with Fortuna Hjørring.
Christensen started his career coaching lower-league clubs, beginning with Brønderslev IF in 1982. He managed Vrå IF, before moving to the women's topflight Elitedivisionen team Fortuna Hjørring in 1985, staying there for three years. He spent four years with men's team Nørresundby Boldklub, guiding the club to the second-tier Danish 1st Division in 1991, with players such as later Danish champions Henrik Rasmussen and Jan Pedersen. He joined Fortuna Hjørring for a second stint in 1994, guiding the club to the Double in 1995, by winning both the Elitedivisionen and the Danish Women's Cup.
In 1995, Christensen was hired by Viborg FF in the men's Danish 1st Division, and guided the club to the top-flight Danish Superliga. He managed the club to the eighth-place finish of the Danish Superliga 1995-96 season. In the following season, the club ended up 11th, and was relegated to the 1st Division. He was allowed to retain his position at the club, and promptly guided the club to promotion for the Superliga the following season. In the Danish Superliga 1998-99 season, he once more secured another eighth-place finish.
