There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Malmö are already the Allsvenskan winners and can relax with the season objective secured. If they do relax it might give the away team a slightly better chance in this one. Halmstad are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.

Malmö FF are returning here after visiting Kalmar in a Allsvenskan game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Jo Inge Berget scored the goal(s). Manager J.
