Malmo look to build on first-leg win

Malmo’s 3-2 win over Vikingur Reykjavik put them on the brink of advancing from the duo’s first-round UEFA Champions League qualification tie, particularly in the absence of the away goals rule. Milos Milojevic’s Swedish champions approach the decisive second contest in good form after winning four of their last five games, and will be hopeful of grinding out a win in Iceland.

Indeed, Malmo sit fourth in the Swedish Allsvenskan after bouncing back from an underwhelming start to the season, boasting the best defensive record in the division (conceding just 12 goals) to aid their push for a third consecutive title. Malmo made the Champions League group stages last term, overcoming strong opponents in Rangers and Ludogorets, so should expect to make the next stage at the very least.

Vikingur, meanwhile, are in imperious form on the domestic front, where they are bidding for successive titles after edging a thrilling race last term. Arnar Gunnlaugsson’s men have won eight of their last nine, their only loss coming against Malmo, but a disappointing May in which they shipped eight goals against the likes of Breidablik and Stjarnan indicated the gulf in quality between this pair.

0-1

马尔默希望建立在首回合胜利的基础上

马尔默3-2战胜雷克雅未克，使他们在欧冠资格赛第一轮的比赛中，特别是在没有客场进球规则的情况下，处于晋级的边缘。米洛耶维奇率领的瑞典冠军在过去五场比赛中取得四场胜利后，以良好的状态进入了决定性的第二场比赛，并有望在冰岛取得一场胜利。

事实上，马尔默在瑞典奥斯文斯坎联赛中排名第四，他从赛季开局不佳的状态中恢复过来，拥有联赛中最好的防守记录(只丢了12球)，帮助球队实现三连冠。马尔默上个赛季打进了欧冠小组赛，他战胜了强大的对手游骑兵和卢多戈雷茨，所以至少可以期待下一阶段的比赛。

与此同时，维金格在国内赛场上表现强势，在上个赛季的激烈竞争中获胜后，他们正在争夺连续冠军。贡劳格松的球队在过去的9场比赛中取得了8场胜利，唯一的失利是对阵马尔默，但令人失望的5月份，他们在对阵布雷达布利克和斯特雅南时打进了8球，这表明这对组合的实力差距很大。
