Malmo FF vs Rangers Prediction & Betting Tips (26 September)

Malmö FF occupies a strong place in the Swedish football landscape. With 23 titles to its name, Zlatan Ibrahimovic's early club does not play in the same category as its opponents locally. In a 2024 championship already well underway modeled on a calendar year, Malmö FF has already more or less finished the game and is at the top of the ranking with 11 points ahead of its runner-up Djurgarden. After being held back by AIK Stockholm 0-0 and GAIS 0-0, the Swedish team resumed its march forward last weekend with a convincing success against Hacken 4-0. Present in the preliminary rounds of the next Champions League, Malmö surrendered twice against Sparta Prague, in the first leg 0-2 and in the return 2-0. Opposite, the Rangers can no longer compete with the great rival of Celtic.

Since 2012, Rangers have won just one 2021 championship while Celtic have triumphed 12 times in the last 13 editions. A hegemony that is not ready to end. Indeed, Rangers are currently 3rd in the standings and are 5 points behind Celtic who are flawless. Just before the international break, James Tavernier's teammates fell heavily in the Celtic den 3-0. Since that snag, they have dominated Dundee United 0-1 before dominating Dundee FC in the Scottish Cup last weekend 3-0. 

No changes to highlight because the championship is coming to an end. We can tell you that Hugo Larsson joined Eintracht Frankfurt but it has already been months. Sold for 9 million euros, it is worth 3 times more. Regarding the current group, Isaac Thelin (13 goals) is the top scorer for Malmö FF, he who had the heyday of Bordeaux at the time. 10 goals for the Salernitana recruit (arrived a few months ago). The long-term injured Moisander, Tinnerholm, Lewicki, Haksabanovic and Vecchia could miss this match.

 Opposite, Rangers FC can still count on their captain Tavernier while no major departures have impacted the group this summer. Conversely, the reinforcements of V.Cerny (VfL Wolfsburg), Diomandé (Nordsjaelland, 5 million euros), N.Bajrami (Sassuolo, 4 million euros) are appreciable. The starting left back Ylmaz, the important Belgian in midfield Raskin, the Welsh international left winger Matondo, as well as the center forward Danilo could miss this first day in Malmö.
