Malmo -1 Goal Handicap
Since the start of the season, Malmo have won eight times, five of which were at home, and lost just once at the Eleda. Sirius meanwhile lost three of their eight away games this term.
Over 2.5 Goals
This matchup has a tendency to be a high-scoring one as ten of their 12 meetings produced over 2.5 goals. In the current season, Malmo’s last three home games and Sirius’s four of their previous six away games also ended with over 2.5 strikes.
Correct Score Group Bet 1-0, 2-0, 3-0
Seven times this season Malmo won by one of the suggested results, four of them at the Eleda. Sirius on the other hand lost twice by the score of 0-3 while playing on the road.
Reigning champions and record Swedish league title holders with 22 Malmo FF are on course for yet another championship challenge. After a seven-match unbeaten run to start off the season, the Sky Blues suffered a huge setback after losing three consecutive games starting round eight.
Coach Milos Milojevic however quickly took a control of his team and led them to four wins in five and closed the gap to three points with leaders Djurgarden. Obviously, Malmo have not been scoring enough goals as they are averaging 1.27 per game this season although their defense is solid with 0.80 goals conceded in the league.
Sirius is one of the lower-tier clubs in the Swedish league with no major trophies other than a second-division, the Superettan title in 2016. However, the Blue-Blacks have maintained their place among the elite clubs and are having a fine 2022 season with 21 points at eighth position.
Currently, undefeated in three games, coach Daniel Backstrom will be happy with his team’s recent performances when they let in just one goal in their last three league fixtures. Moreover, Sirius have not lost in their last four trips and Backstrom will hope that gives his team a confidence boost ahead of their trip to Malmo.
It won’t be an easy match for Malmo as the odds for a home win suggest. However, the Sky Blues have never lost to Sirius in 12 meetings and we predict that trend to continue. With odds being 1.36 for a Malmo win, we will pick the -1 goal handicap for Malmo instead.
