Malmo Team Overview
The team's most recent official match took place on as part of the Allsvenskan tournament (home team - Brommapojkarna, away team - Malmo). The match concluded with a scoreline of 1:2.

Malmö are fifth with 23 points, and for a club of that stature, this feels more like a verdict than an achievement. In attack, the team maintains its level: they have scored 30 goals in 15 rounds and have found the net in ten consecutive home matches. However, defensively the situation is worrying: they have already conceded 25 goals and rarely manage to keep a clean sheet at home.
Now it will be the new manager's job to turn this around. Gaute Helstrup was presented on 30 June and watched his first match from the stands, leaving the touchline to Guillermo Molins. The Norwegian coach arrives from Bodø/Glimt, where he was a key figure alongside Kjetil Knutsen in winning the title, reaching the Europa League semi-finals and the Champions League round of sixteen. This autumn, Malmö are out of European competition, so between rounds they will have only training sessions, with no need to conserve energy.

Degerfors Team Overview
The away team played their last official match on as part of the Allsvenskan tournament (home team - Göteborg, away - Degerfors). The match concluded with a scoreline of 2:0.
Here are the match stats (Degerfors vs Göteborg):
- ball possession: 48% vs 52%;
- corner kicks: 7 vs 8;
- fouls: 13 vs 15;
- yellow cards: 2 vs 2;
- shots on target: 4 vs 6.
Degerfors are 15th with ten points - in the direct relegation zone. The numbers match: 12 scored and 26 conceded, 11 matches without a win and five without a single goal. In the previous round, Henok Goitom's side lost in Gothenburg (0:2), with the first goal coming from a penalty that experts called a mistake.
There is little help available to Goitom. Defender Juhani Pikkarainen and Mamadouba Diaby are out, and in early August the club promoted 18-year-old goalkeeper Liam Karlsson to the first team on a contract until 2027. You strengthen in August out of a lack of options, not an abundance of them.

Editor's Pick
At Eleda Stadion there are plenty of goals in this matchup: over 2.5 goals were scored in 6 of the last 7 home meetings between these sides. And away from home, Degerfors concede almost every time - in 20 of their last 21 Allsvenskan matches.
The visitors' goalless run is at risk of ending here for the simplest of reasons: the opposition will score first and force them to open up. That said, we're not expecting a rout: the hosts' defence is the same as it was, and Goitom knows how to slow the game down. But it's equally hard to imagine the 15th-placed side taking points away from Skåne. The bet is total over 2.5 goals. Predicted score - 2:1.
