Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-0
Elfsborg
Malmo will look to build on a 3-1 win over Kalmar when they take on Elfsborg on Thursday evening. Jahn Dahl Tomasson’s troops aim to overtake Djurgarden in top position in the standings, and we are positive that they will go for a win in the midweek clash. Croatia international Antonio-Mirko Colak, who scored a brace in the triumph over Kalmar, is likely to pose a big threat to the opposition defenders. Denmark defender Soren Rieks remains on the sidelines with injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.
Elfsborg, on the other hand, head into the match with a severely-weakened squad as all Alm, Holst, Maudo, and Olsson are sidelined with injuries. Given Malmo display in the triumph over Nanne Bergstrand’s charges, anything but a routine home win would be a major surprise. It has to be noted that Elfsborg have not defeated Malmo at Eleda Stadion since October 2014.
