Malmo – Rangers

Rangers open their UEFA Champions League qualification campaign with a trip to Sweden. The Scottish giants have not shown any signs of rust and will be eagerly awaiting to pit their wits with Malmo. The Swedish champions need to address their defensive issues as the prolific Gers cannot be taken lightly.

Malmo have started the current Allsvenskan campaign in the same fashion they finished the last, among victories. Steven Gerrard is rapidly establishing himself as a Rangers legend and he want ti ensure Rangers qualify for the Champions League for the first time in ten years.

Malmo has not conceded a goal in their last two Allsvenskan outings. It was a different story for the Blue Ones, who conceded dull goals that were called out by Jon Dahl Tomasson in his post-match press conference. There arent any concerns regarding their scoring ability but if they can hold their rivals. The answer to that is a no. Rangers should be able to get on the scoreboard just like HJK before them as Malmo’s defence continues to allow cheap goals.
