This pair of teams are delivering a sweet season so far and match dates like today could be decisive. Here's the preview for Malmö FF - Djurgården!
- Malmö FF have the fewest dropped points from leading position (0) in Allsvenskan
- Malmö FF have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Djurgården have scored away.
This pitch has grass, which is not Djurgården's normal surface at their own arena. When playing on grass Djurgården have performed like this: Played 32 matches earning 14 wins, 6 draws and 12 defeats with the goal numbers 39-34 (scored/conceded).
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Malmö FF form and stats
8-1-1 is the performance here at Eleda Stadion so far in the Allsvenskan, giving Malmö FF a total of 25 from their 10 games here. Outstanding results! Malmö has recorded two wins in a row here at Eleda Stadion, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.
In their previous game, the manager Rydström led his Malmö FF to a defeat away at Mjällby. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Eleda Stadion. The first defeat after collecting points in three league matches. Busanello, defender, was given a rating of 7.6/10 in that game, top of the team. Busanello hit two key passes and won 3 of 10 duels.
Previous to that game, a home match hosting Halmstad in a game that was won 3-0.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Malmö matches with similar probabilities have ended with 4 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat (from 8 games).
Goals, goals, goals? Nobody knows the future, but we do know that 12 of the 16 most recent league games with this side has seen three or more goals.
The manager Rydström will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Smedby in only three days.
Malmö FF are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at Eleda Stadion in their league games, having scored an impressive 28 goals in 10 matches. Malmö FF have only conceded 8 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Djurgården form and stats
There's been little loot from Djurgården's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 9 away games in the Allsvenskan. Djurgården only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 2 draws.
Djurgården lost away at IFK Göteborg (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. It's worrying for Djurgården that their goalie Zetterström pulled off seven saves in the IFK Göteborg fixture, but still could not hinder a beating. The attacker Asoro got a match rating of 7.93 in that game. Asoro hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.
Preceding that, 1-1 away against Luzern in the Europa Conference League.
The schedule is very tough for Djurgården now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Svenska Cupen game at Sandviken is waiting in only three days.
Djurgården are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 10 away goals from 9 games (in the league). In the opposite end, Djurgården have conceded 16 goals in their away games.
Head 2 Head
Djurgården have won at least one point in the last 4 fixtures (3-1-0) against Malmö FF.It's not the first time these sides face each other this campaign, as the fixture list show this recent game: Djurgården - Malmö FF 2-0.
