📋 Team News: IF Elfsborg

It seems likely that Di Gule should kick off with a 4-3-3 formation and select H. Rafn Valdimarsson, Johan Larsson, Sebastian Holmen, Gustaf Lagerbielke, Niklas Hult, Ahmed Qasem, Michael Baidoo, Andre Roemer, Jeppe Okkels, S. Aron Gudjohnsen and Jacob Ondrejka.

ℹ️ Team News: Malmö

Due to a mostly full-strength squad, there is only the sole fitness problem for the Malmö manager Henrik Rydström to be concerned about. Niklas Moisander (Cruciate Ligament Injury) won’t be playing here.

It’s our belief that Himmelsblått will likely make use of a 3-4-3 system, starting Johan Dahlin, Lasse Nielsen, Derek Cornelius, Busanello, Joseph Ceesay, Hugo Larsson, Sergio Pena, Soeren Rieks, Sebastian Nanasi, Isaac Kiese Thelin and S. Holmquist Vecchia.

✨ Prediction

We think that IF Elfsborg might have a difficult job to see themselves scoring against this Malmö FF team who we think will likely emerge victorious.

We’re going for a good battle with a 0-1 winning score for Malmö FF after 90 minutes.

Looking forward to this.
