Braga vs Malmo Prediction: Expect a rather productive match

In the sixth round of the Europa League, Braga will face Malmo. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Braga, always the fourth-ranked team in Portugal, is looking to take advantage of Sporting and Porto's playing problems this season to win local medals finally. They are second in the table at the end of 11 rounds, six points behind the top side Benfica. They have had mixed success in the Europa League, finishing third in Group D with two wins, one draw, and two defeats in five games.

Malmo was last season's champions in Sweden, but they failed to defend their title. The Sky Blue are currently sitting in seventh place in the standings. At the weekend, they finally beat Varberg 5:2, ending their streak of five straight defeats in all competitions. The Swedes also failed in the Europa League, losing all five of their group-stage matches by a goal difference of 2:9, guaranteeing themselves the last place in the D quartet.

Braga is playing great in the Portuguese league this season. They are sitting in an unusually high second place and now have the opportunity to make the playoffs in the Europa League. They must beat Malmo at home and expect a defeat from Union Berlin. The Portuguese must take on the Swedes because the Blue and Sky are in terrible shape and have no tournament motivation. As a result, we are forced to bet on Braga's victory with a handicap (-1.5) at odds of about 1.875.

This season has been a failure for Malmo as they finished only in the middle of the table in the local league, and in the Europa League, they lost any chance of making the playoffs long ago. They are simply living up to the winter break, having lost all motivation, so their matches are highly entertaining. In the previous five meetings, there were 20 goal attempts (4.00 on average per game). You can bet on a total over 3.5 goals at odds of 2.40, and separately it is worth betting on the goal of Vitor Oliveira for 2.05.
