Malmo FF vs Elfsborg Prediction & Betting tips
Both teams have stumbled more often than you might expect at the start of the season, so they will have to try to take all three points in this early match on Matchday 13. Malmo have a chance to rise to the top for now, so they will need to take an offensive approach to take advantage of Elfsborg’s defensive permeability. On the other hand, Thelin’s team will also face a loosely cohesive defense, so it is likely that both can create good scoring opportunities and contribute to an open match.
