Malmo FF, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Malmö FF players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Kalmar FF. In that game they had 60% possession and managed 9 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Kalmar FF who had 5 attempts and 2 on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 12 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, he will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 7 goals in the same period. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games; however, they have scored in 12 of their 13 played at Eleda Stadion this season.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Isaac Thelin will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 13 goals in Malmö FF's 26 league games this season.
Varbergs BoIS, Recent FormVarbergs BoIS won't feel too deflated by the 1-0 home defeat to Djurgårdens IF, given that their opponents sit a full 14 places above them in the league table. They achieved 39% possession in that match and had 5 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against Djurgårdens IF's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
Despite scoring 5 goals in their last 6 matches, they have failed to pick up many points, mainly because their back line have shipped 17 goals in that same period. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, and they have conceded at least one goal in 12 of their 13 away games this season.
Varbergs BoIS will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row.
The Varbergs BoIS travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Dion Krasniqi, who's scored 3 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
A defeat for Varbergs BoIS in their last match against Malmö FF was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 6 goals.
Malmö will be confident of finding the net in this one against Varbergs, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 7 encounters between the two sides. Himmelsblått have a decent scoring record against Varbergs in recent times, having hit the back of the net 18 times in the last 5 matches between the two.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Malmö has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Varbergs in 5 games.
Søren Rieks is on a hot scoring streak against Varbergs, having scored in each of Malmö's last 3 meetings with them.
With both Anders Christiansen (Heart problems) and Daníel Guðjohnsen (Back) being out for the rest of the season and Niklas Moisander (Calf), Lasse Nielsen (Head), Søren Rieks (Groin) and Anton Tinnerholm (Groin) all unavailable in the shorter term, Malmö manager Henrik Rydström will be hoping none of his other players pick up a knock going into this clash.
Despite Anton Liljenbäck (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season Varbergs manager Martin Skogman will be pleased to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from ahead of this fixture.
