Our Prediction for Malmö vs Gothenburg
The "Sky Blues" claimed the championship last season, marking their third title since 2020. The "Angels," on the other hand, narrowly avoided relegation, finishing in 13th place.
This season, Gothenburg has shown notable improvement. Under Stefan Billborn’s guidance, they now comfortably sit mid-table. Recently, they've found form, securing 2-0 victories over GAIS and Norrköping, although they suffered a narrow 1-2 defeat to AIK. Malmö, under Rydström, advanced through qualifiers against KI Klaksvik and even PAOK but suffered two losses to Sparta Prague. In the Europa League, after an initial 0-2 home loss to Rangers, they went on to defeat Qarabağ away, although they later lost at home to Olympiacos. These extra fixtures have led to more league draws, including recent 1-1 results against Västerås and Värnamo. However, Malmö remains well-positioned, with an eight-point lead over their nearest rival, Hammarby.
Malmö justifies its top spot with an impressive average of 2.26 goals scored and 0.78 conceded per game—true championship numbers. In contrast, Gothenburg's record stands at a more modest 1.15 goals scored and 1.42 conceded per game.
