Malmö FF

LWLLLL 📉

Malmö will be hoping for a better result following a 2-1 Europa League defeat last time out to KRC Genk.

In that match, Malmö FF had 38% possession and 8 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Malmö FF was Taha Abdi Ali (4'). On the other side, Genk got 25 shots at goal with 9 of them on target. Daan Heymans (45') and Konstantinos Karetsas (82') scored for KRC Genk.

It has not been often in recent times where Malmö FF have shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Malmö FF have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 games, shipping 10 goals during that time.

Varbergs BoIS

DLDDLL ⚠

Following on from a losing effort in their last game against Västerås SK in Superettan action, Varbergs BoIS and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

The only scorer from Varbergs BoIS was Erion Sadiku (44'). Julius Johansson (47'), Axel Taonsa (52'), Mikkel Ladefoged (79') and Sidy Sow (93') scored for Västerås SK.

Varbergs BoIS have been effective going forward leading up to this encounter, having scored 6 times in their previous 6 matches. Having said that, Varbergs BoIS can also improve defensively after being scored against in 5 of those same matches. While that may be of interest, time will tell whether that trend might be sustained in this next game or not.

👥 Head to head

Checking on their past head to head results going back to 24/10/2021 reveals that these encounters have not been kind to Varbergs BoIS. They’ve not managed to come away with any wins whatsoever whereas Malmö have been too good for them, getting wins in 67% of those ties.

There were also goals galore in those games, with 25 in all which averages out at 4.17 goals per match.

The previous league fixture featuring these clubs was Svenska Cupen match day 3 on 03/03/2024 which finished with the scoreline of Malmö FF 1-1 Varbergs BoIS.

The referee was Fredrik Klitte.

📰 Team News: Malmö

There’s just one fitness concern for the Malmö boss Miguel Ángel Ramírez to be concerned about thanks to an otherwise robust squad. Johan Dahlin (Cruciate ligament injury) will miss out.

💭 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Varbergs BoIS would be disappointed if they were not to find the net against this Malmö FF outfit, although it may not quite be as many as the goals that they could concede.

We think that it’s going to be both teams to score in a 2-1 winning margin for Malmö FF at the end of this one. Could easily see this go either way.
