Riga FC vs Malmo FF Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Daniel Ngulu | in Champions League Predictions
Riga will be eyeing a return to winning ways when they face Malmo in the return leg of the first qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday. Malmo claimed a 1-0 win in the first leg and now they travel to Latvia hoping to seal the win on aggregate. Riga have lost three of their last five matches and they go to this game without a goal in their last two matches, while they’ve managed one clean sheet in the last five. At home, they have five straight wins and this run, which has seen them keep three clean sheets is what they’ll want to take to the Malmo game. In this game, they will miss the services of Nigerian forward Yunusa Owolabi who was sent off in the last match. This absence will be felt not just because Riga are chasing the tie, but they’ve also never scored a Champions League goal in the four matches they’ve played.
Malmo returned to domestic action lifted by their first leg win over Riga in the first leg. Ahead of the return leg, they beat Sirius 4-0 in the Swedish league, and among the scorers was the in-form Antonio Colak who scored the only goal in the first leg. With five wins in their last six matches, Malmo will be very confident going to this game, and they’ve kept clean sheets in the last two matches. The Swedes have no loss in the last seven Champions League matches, winning four, and the clean sheet against Riga in the first leg was their fifth in the seven matches

Malmo are clear favorites here even as they play away from home. They have five wins in their last six matches and are more experienced in the Champions League. They are facing a side that has never scored a Champions League goal, though playing just four matches in the competition. Malmo are bound to have a comfortable outing here so back them to win both halves.
