Rangers vs Malmo team news
Alfredo Morelos will lead the line after returning to action since the first leg, although Ryan Jack is injured and Kemar Roofe is unavailable due to personal reasons.
Jonas Knudsen and Ola Toivonen remain the only injury absentees for the visitors, who are likely to stick with the same line-up that emerged victorious at the Eleda Stadion.
Rangers vs Malmo preview
While Morelos’ return is a major boost for a Gers side that struggled for cutting edge in the away leg, he was unable to come up with the goods in Saturday’s frustrating 1-0 defeat against Dundee United – their first SPL loss in 41 fixtures.
That game was hardly ideal preparation for this crucial game against Jon Dahl Tomasson’s team, who are likely to also sit deep and defend as they aim to protect their first-leg lead.
Having kept four consecutive clean sheets in the league and let in just three goals in their last five Champions League matches on the road, the Swedish champions will definitely back themselves to stifle their out-of-form opponents.
Rangers vs Malmo tips & predictions
All in all, even money (2.00) seems like good value on Malmo ensuring under 2.5 goals against a Rangers side that are yet to hit top gear this season.
