Malmo FF vs Rangers Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League
by Devesh Jaganath in Europa League Predictions
Scottish giants Rangers will get their 2024-25 Europa League campaign started on Thursday when they travel to Eleda Stadion to face Malmo in an opening-round clash. Di Blae earned their spot in Europe by winning Allsvenskan last season, while the Gers finished second in the Premiership. Check out our match prediction below!
Both these sides are set to feature in Europe’s second-tier cup competition after bowing out of the Champions League qualifiers last month. Malmo were knocked out by Czech First League champions Sparta Prague on a 4-0 aggregate and Rangers came up short (3-1) to Dinamo Kyiv of the Ukrainian Premier League.
The hosts are currently inserted as the bookmakers’ favourite in this contest, but not by much, indicating just how evenly matched these two look on paper. Who will get the new-look Europa League off to a winning start? Let’s take a look at the key facts to consider in this one.

Malmo FF - Rangers: Form Analysis
With the Allsvenskan now in the final stretch of the season, Malmo look almost certain to retain their title, as they currently lead the league standings by 10 points with just six games left to play.
Di Blae enter the Europa League in solid form, unbeaten in their last four matches with clean sheets posted in each, while the only defeats they’ve conceded in their last 10 games were against Sparta during Champions League qualification.
Barring the Champions League, the hosts have won 13 of their last 15 home league matches and scored two or more goals in 11 of those games!
Meanwhile, Rangers have made a mixed start to the Scottish Premiership season, posting three wins, one draw and one loss over their first five games of the campaign, leaving them trailing rivals Celtic by five points.
The Gers have been good defensively in recent weeks, though, maintaining four clean sheets in their last five matches in all competitions, with the only blemish in that time being the 3-0 defeat in the Old Firm derby.
However, on the road, the Scottish outfit have been far from impressive, managing just a single win in their last seven matches in all competitions dating back to the penultimate match of last season.

Malmo FF & Rangers Squad Analysis
Malmo are likely to be without at least five players for this opening-round encounter, including long-term injury absentees Oscar Lewicki (cruciate ligament), Stefano Holmquist Vecchia (back) and Anton Tinnerholm (muscle).
Centre-back Niklas Moisander has now undergone knee surgery and is likely to miss a significant portion of the season, while Sead Haksabanovic has missed the last five games with a groin strain and is ruled out for this one as well.
Cyriel Dessers has scored five goals in his last five matches in all competitions for Rangers!
Philippe Clement made his feelings clear about Marco Guida’s decision to send off Jefte in the defeat to Dinamo Kyiv, but unfortunately, the ruling stood and the Brazilian will be ineligible to feature on Thursday.
Jefte will join a fairly lengthy list of absentees on the sidelines, such as Rabbi Matondo (hamstring), Nicolas Raskin (knock), Ridvan Yilmaz (hamstring) and Danilo (knee), who are nursing injuries.

Our Malmo FF vs Rangers Prediction
This looks like a very open affair where diversifying your wagers could prove to be the smartest play. Still, given both these sides' form and recent records, it feels as though there will be plenty of chances created before the final whistle blasts.
Rangers have an in-form striker in Cyriel Dessers who will be looking to add to his impressive five-in-five recent record. However, Malmo are more than capable of notching up big scores, especially on their home patch. Therefore, our Malmo vs Rangers prediction: Over 2.5!
