Our prediction for this Sweden Allsvenskan match:
Following a 4-1 loss to Brommapojkarna, Halmstad will look to claim a major scalp when they take on Malmo in the Allsvenskan round 18. The hosts have suffered four defeats in the previous five league matches and, as a result, the bookies see them as big underdogs in Saturday’s encounter. Defender Joseph Baffo should be recalled to the starting XI, while midfielder Naeem Mohammed remains on the sidelines with an ACL injury.
The league leaders, on the other hand, are leading the chase for the Allsvenskan trophy, but their display in a 1-0 loss to Sirius was anything but good. As Malmo were not in action in the national championship at the weekend, tired legs should not prove to be a big problem for the title hopefuls. Therefore, we predict that Henrik Rydstrom’s men are going to pick up all three points from the match. Midfielder Otto Rosengren is banned for the visiting side.
