Malmö will kick off their Europa League campaign at home against Rangers on Thursday, riding high on their impressive form in the Allsvenskan.

Malmö：
They remain unbeaten in their last four league games, with no goals conceded since their defeat to Sparta Prague at the end of August. Notably, they secured dominant 4-0 victories against Djurgårdens and Häcken, as well as goalless draws against GAIS and AIK. With a substantial 11-point lead at the top of the table and only six matches remaining, Malmö can afford to focus on their European ambitions. Despite a tough Champions League qualifying campaign, the chance to shine in Europe again is enticing, and they hope to improve upon their previous group-stage exit in last season's Europa League.

Rangers：

Rangers will travel to Sweden on Thursday, eager to turn around their disappointing start to the season against Malmö. The team suffered a crushing 3-0 defeat in their first Old Firm derby and finds themselves five points adrift of Celtic. Their exit from the Champions League, marred by a contentious red card against Dynamo Kyiv, has further fueled their desire to succeed in Europe. However, their recent Europa League history is more promising; they were finalists in 2022 and narrowly missed the quarter-finals last season. A recent 3-0 cup win over Dundee has given the team a much-needed confidence boost, and with five of their next six matches at Ibrox, Rangers are hoping to build momentum and reclaim their form on the continental stage.

Prediction:  2-0
