The Swedish Allsvenskan returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Mjallby and Malmo square off at the Strandvallen Stadium on Saturday. Henrik Rydstrom’s men will head into the weekend looking to get one over the hosts, having lost both home and away meetings between the sides last season.
Mjallby returned to winning ways last Saturday when they scored three second-half goals to see off Sirius 3-2 at the Strandvallen Stadium.
Before that, Anders Torstensson’s side saw their two-game winning run come to an end on June 29, when they played out a 2-2 draw with Hvidovre in a friendly matchup.
Mjallby now return home, where they are unbeaten in seven of their eight league matches this season and have picked up the division’s second-most points so far (17).
Elsewhere, Malmo turned in a masterclass in front of goal last weekend as they stormed to an emphatic 5-1 victory over Halmstad at the Eleda Stadium.
Rydstrom’s men have now gone eight consecutive games without defeat, claiming six wins and two draws since a 3-1 loss against Elfsborg on May 5.
With 35 points from 14 matches, Malmo currently lead the way at the top of the Allsvenskan table, nine points and two places above Saturday’s hosts.

Mjallby vs Malmo Prediction
Mjallby have put together a fine run of form in recent weeks and will head into the weekend with confidence as they look to make it three straight wins against Malmo.
However, Rydstrom’s men boast a superior and more experienced squad and we predict they will pick up where they left off against Halmstad.
