Malmö were dumped out of the Champions League contention after losing 4-0 on aggregate to Sparta Prague in the Champions League qualification finals. They have their attention back in the league, where they were held to a 2-2 draw in their last game. They are unbeaten in their previous 3 league games. They sit first on the table with 45 points in 20 games, scoring 49 goals and conceding 19.
