Prediction: 1-2
Malmo
Tuesday’s football game at LNK Sporta Parks pits together RFS and Malmo, the two teams that meet for the first time in European competitions. RFS are on an eight-game winning run in all competitions, but they will have a big fish to fry against the Swedish champions. Croatia international Herdi Prenga limped off with injury in a 1-0 win over Levadia, with fellow defender Elvis Stuglis likely to step up.
The Blues, on the other hand, have been in a splendid form of late as well, with the team eliminating Iberia 1999 in round 1 without any difficulties. Given Malmo’s signs of improvement in Allsvenskan, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Henryk Rydstrom’s troops. The likes of Botheim, Dahlin, Homquist, and Lajqi are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team, while midfielder Oliver Berg should be recalled to the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Malmo):
Founded on February 24, 1910, Malmo are a Swedish team that compete in Allsvenskan league. The Blues welcome their rivals at Stadion, Malmo, the venue which was opened in April, 2009. It is important to note that the stadium can hold up to 22,500 supporters of which 18,000 are seated.
Malmo are the most successful Swedish side, with the team winning their 23rd domestic trophy in 2017. The Blues finished the season seven points clear of AIK, scoring 63 goals and conceding 27 in the process. Speaking of the club’s European success, Malmo did well to make it to the European Cup final in the 1978/1979 season, but they eventually failed to win the trophy.
The Swedish side were beaten by Nottingham Forest in the title game (0-1), with Trevor John Francis scoring the only goal of the match. Malmo wear sky-blue shirts and white shorts when playing at home, whereas their away colour is black.
