In this 2nd week match, on Monday Apr 11th, Malmö FF will host Elfsborg at Swedbank Stadion in a Allsvenskan match. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 4 degrees, so hopefuly the match makes up for the weather. Malmö FF sits at 7th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Kalmar. Isaac Thelin struck first for Malmö FF in the 76th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Kalmar couldn’t muster any offence and Malmö FF ran away with the shutout win. Malmö FF is looking for direction having 1 win and 0 losses in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 16th placed Elfsborg, recorded a 0-2 loss against Mjällby. Mamudo Moro struck first for Mjällby in the 55th minute, then David Löfquist added another in the 66th minute In the end, Elfsborg was frustrated by Mjällby’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Mjällby ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 1 of their last 10.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Malmö FF won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Elfsborg is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Rasmus Alm and Jacob Ondrejka each having 2 goals in their last five. Søren Rieks and Jo Inge Berget are the top scorers for Malmö FF in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
