by Daniel Ngulu | in Europa League Predictions
Hot on the heels of their convincing win at Liverpool in ten Premier League games, Nottingham Forest will be switching gears to continental action. They will be back at home to face Malmo in the Europa League as the competition enters matchday five. The hosts go into this match sitting 23rd and taking on 33rd placed Malmo. Read on for our preview and prediction here.
It hasn’t been convincing at all for Nottingham this season, and especially in the Europa League. They’ve managed just one win in the opening four matches so far in Europe. The push from that win over Liverpool will work well for the Tricky Trees.
Malmo, on their part, head into this match with sights trained on getting their first win in the league stage. The only time the Swedes avoided defeat was in a 1-1 draw with Dinamo Zagreb on matchday three. Getting the points from a fired-up Nottingham side will be a surprise on its own.

Nottingham Forest - Malmo: Form Analysis
Nottingham Forest have seen a semblance of stability during Sean Dyche’s time. They have successfully leapt from the Premier League bottom three, and it took some spectacular effort.
The Tricky Trees produced an attacking masterclass to silence Liverpool in a 3-0 win at the dreaded Anfield. With a win, two draws, and a loss, their European campaign will need a similar push.
There are all the reasons for home fans to feel positive about this game and their campaign in Europe. Nottingham Forest under Dyche are unbeaten at home, winning twice and producing one draw. One of the wins was against FC Porto, a 2-0 victory.
In nine matches against English sides in Europe, Malmo lost eight times.
Malmo were disappointing in their domestic season, finishing sixth. The Europa League represents their best chance to give the fans something worthwhile.
With the Allsvenskan concluded and all attention in Europe, they’ll hope that undivided focus pays back. Facing a side featuring in competitive action at the Premier League level, however, means the Swedes could struggle with the pace.
Malmo have generally struggled in Europe, and coming here, they will need a minor miracle to improve on their winless run. In the last 20 main draw matches in the Europa League, they have one win and 16 defeats.

Nottingham Forest & Malmo Squad Analysis
Nottingham Forest are grappling with a long injury list but would not want to let that kill their current momentum. They did it against Liverpool and will be confident of dealing with Malmo despite the circumstances.
The major player missing here is Chris Wood, who is battling with a knee injury set to keep him sidelined till December. The New Zealander has three goals this season.
In his absence, Igor Jesus will be expected to fill in. The Brazilian forward hasn’t scored this season but has had some run-ins in cup competitions and will be key in the attack.
Nottingham will still miss defenders Ola Aina and Oleksandr Zinchenko.
As Nottingham rely on Jesus to provide the spark in attack, Malmo will be counting on Sead Haksabanovic for the same. This will be more of a crossed fingers moment, as the team hasn’t lost in the last 15 times the Montenegrin scored.
That includes their most recent match in Allsvenskan, as they beat GAIS 2-1. Malmo will also be reliant on Anders Christiansen in attack, with the Dane coming here on an xG of 2.50, having scored four times in the just-concluded league campaign.

Our Nottingham Forest vs Malmo Prediction
Malmo are getting to face Nottingham Forest at a very tricky time. The Swedes need a win to breathe life into their European campaign but face a Nottingham Forest with a winning momentum. It will be even trickier as Malom have to travel to London for this match.
Nottingham are not only on a good run but also scored three in each of their last two outings. Malmo conceded at least three in three of their last nine matches, and another high-scoring game looks to be in the offing. Our prediction for Nottingham Forest v Malmo is for more than 2.5 goals.
Nottingham Forest vs Malmo - Other Interesting Predictions
BTTS
While Nottingham have done well in their recent matches, clean sheets have proven elusive. The Tricky Trees have managed just three shutouts in the last 10 games. Malmo will be alerted to this, as they have only failed to score twice in the last 10 games.
However, they are on one clean sheet only in 10 matches themselves. Our second prediction here is for both teams to score.
