Swedish giants Malmo’s return to the UEFA Champions League after three years out is going on well. They have negotiated their way from the first qualifying round and here the challenge gets tougher as they take on Scottish champions Rangers in the third qualifying round. Malmo saw off Latvian side Riga before eliminating Finnish side HJK in the earlier two rounds. They have an impressive run going to this game and will hope to continue that way going to this tie. Malmo are unbeaten in their last seven matches and have four clan sheets therein, while they have scored two or more in five of their last six matches. At home, Malmo have four straight wins, and three clean sheets; in their earlier rounds in the Champions League they won their home matches, and this too, they’ll want to carry to this fixture.

Rangers got a bye to the third qualifying round and mark a return to the Champions League with a game against the team they last faced in this competition. In 2011 the Scottish giants were eliminated at this same stage by Malmo. Here they return a much stronger side and they started their season on a winning note, beating Livingston 3-0 in the Scottish Premiership. They wrapped up an impressive preseason period with a 2-1 win over Real Madrid and going into this game, they have scored two or more goals in three of the last four matches. Rangers have six wins in their last nine matches and have only lost once in the process. They have only failed to score in two of their last 10 matches.
