We head to the Doosan Arena on Thursday evening for a Europa League Matchday 2 fixture between Viktoria Plzen and Malmo. Viktorka and Di Blae are 18th and 26th in the League Phase standings, respectively. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Viktoria Plzen reached the last 16 in this competition last season and kicked off this campaign with a 1-1 draw against Ferencvaros on the road on Matchday 1.
However, Viktorka lost two league matches either side of that result, against Zlin last weekend and Sparta Prague before that, which sees them enter this one winless in three games.
The hosts won three home games on the bounce before losing to Zlin at the weekend. They had a record of W2 D1 L1 in their four home games in this competition last season.
Meanwhile, Malmo failed to make it out of the League Phase of this competition last season and suffered a 2-1 defeat to Ludogorets in their opening match of this campaign last week.
Di Blae have also endured a disappointing league season in 2025, currently in fifth place, 18 points behind league leaders Mjallby with just five games left to play.
The visitors beat Varnamo 3-2 on Sunday and are unbeaten in their last four away games.

Our Viktoria Plzen vs Malmo Prediction
While Viktoria Plzen are the favourites in this match, they have been conceding goals fairly cheaply of late, only managing a single clean sheet in their last seven matches across all competitions.
Malmo were disappointing in their first match of the competition when losing at home to Ludogorets. However, they have been scoring goals on the road regularly, and we feel they will get on the scoresheet in this one as well. Our Viktoria Plzen vs Malmo prediction is both teams to score.
