These teams have not faced off in the Allsvenskan since 2019. Malmo have the edge in the teams’ last six head-to-head meetings. The Sky Blues have a record of 3W-2D-1L against Sundsvall in the last six games between the clubs.
The home team is unbeaten in the last four matches between Sundsvall and Malmo. The trend does give Sundsvall some hope of a win or draw. However, based on their form, getting a result against a title contender will be difficult.
Malmo took nine points from the last 18 points on offer in the Allsvenskan. The Sky Blues were outscored across the last six games 9-7. Although Malmo are on a two-match winning streak in the division, they had lost three straight matches prior to the win streak.

Malmo are on a strong run of form with back-to-back games ending as wins. The Sky Blues should post a third straight win to move level on points with first-place Hacken. The win for Malmo will put pressure on Hacken ahead of their Sunday match versus Elfsborg.
The Sky Blues should post a 3-1 win away win. Three of Malmo’s last four games finished with over 2.5 goals and Friday’s match will too.
