The upcoming Swedish Allsvenskan match between Sirius and Malmo is set to take place at the Studenternas IP on Friday. Sirius is coming off a recent win, while Malmo saw their unbeaten streak end in a 2-1 defeat against Mjallby.
Malmo currently leads the standings with 35 points from 15 matches, holding a four-point advantage over Djurgardens IF. Despite their recent loss, Malmo will be looking to bounce back and avoid consecutive defeats on the road.
On the other hand, Sirius secured a 3-1 victory against GAIS in their last outing, moving up to ninth place in the table. They will be facing a tough challenge against Malmo, who have a strong record in previous encounters between the two teams.
In terms of team news, Sirius will be without Tobias Carlsson due to a knee injury, while Henrik Castegren is expected to feature after scoring in the last match. Malmo will be missing Stefano Vecchia and Sergio Pena, with Oscar Lewicki and Anton Tinnerholm also unavailable.
Possible lineups for the match include Tannander, Castegren, Nwadike, Jeng, Widgren, Stensson, Walta, Milleskog, Lindberg, Heier, and Salech for Sirius, and Dahlin, Busanello, Moisander, Jansson, Larsen, Nanasi, Johnsen, Christiansen, Berg, Thelin, and Botheim for Malmo.
Our prediction for the match is a 2-1 victory for Malmo, as they look to bounce back from their recent defeat. While Sirius may put up a strong fight, we believe Malmo will come out on top in this encounter.
