Malmo and Chelsea will face each other in the Champions League this week. The Group H game will be held at Malmo New Stadium in Malmo and is scheduled to kick off at 5:45pm UK time on Tuesday.
Malmo
Malmo have done well to enter the Champions League at the group stage, but the Swedish club are unlikely to progress any further. Jon Dahl Tomasson’s side are at the foot of Group H at the moment with no point from three matches.
However, there is a chance that Malmo could drop to the Europa League. They are only three points behind third-placed Zenit Saint Petersburg.
Team News:
Martin Olsson could start at left wing-back.
Chelsea
Chelsea are doing well at the moment, both in the Premier League and in the Champions League, and fans will be optimistic about the team winning both the competitions. Thomas Tuchel’s side are at the top of the Premier League table at the moment with 25 points from 10 matches, three points clear of second-placed Liverpool.
The Blues, who won the Champions League last season, are second in Group H at the moment with six points from three matches, three points behind leaders and Italian giants Juventus. Chelsea will head into the match against Malmo on the back of a 3-0 victory over Newcastle United away from home at St. James’ Park in the Premier League.
Team News:
Mateo Kovacic is injured for Chelsea.
Key Factors to Consider
- Chelsea have scored 5 goals in 3 Champions League games.
- Malmo have scored 0 goal in 3 Champions League games.
- Chelsea have conceded 1 goal in 3 Champions League matches.
