National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Mjällby or Malmö FF that keep their silverware dream alive.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Mjällby and Malmö FF.

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Mjällby's two home games in the Allsvenskan so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Strandvallen. On the other hand, in the Svenska Cupen, Mjällby has performed like this (both home and away): 5 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Mjällby at home in the league. 2 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Malmö was sent out of Svenska Cupen in the group stage last season.The Allsvenskan season is young and Malmö FF have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far.
