On Thu Oct 6th, Malmö FF will play host to Union Berlin in a clash of the Europa League. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 15 degrees, a perfect day for football. Malmö FF is fresh off their 0-0 scoreless draw against Hammarby. Neither Malmö FF nor Hammarby could manage to put one past the goalie. They had 10 and 6 shots on net respectively, but no one could score, and the match ended in a 0 – 0 draw,. Malmö FF should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Union Berlin recorded a 0-2 loss against Eintracht Frankfurt. Mario Götze struck first for Eintracht Frankfurt in the 12th minute on a feed from Randal Kolo Muani, then Jesper Lindstrom added another in the 42nd minute In the end, Union Berlin couldn’t muster any offence and Eintracht Frankfurt ran away with the shutout win. Union Berlin should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 19 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Timo Hübers and Sheraldo Becker are the top scorers for Union Berlin in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Isaac Thelin has been the most effective weapon for Malmö FF lately. The Swedish attacker has netted two goals in his last 5 matches.
