HJK Preview – Can HJK upset Malmo?
HJK suffered a 2-1 defeat away from home at Swedish opponents, Malmo, in last week’s 1st leg clash of this 2nd qualifying round, but although the Finnish hosts return to their Bolt Arena for this upcoming decisive tie, they will be facing quality opposition here.
HJK had previously recorded a comprehensive 7-1 win on aggregate against Montenegro outfit, Buducnost, in the 1st qualifying round of this competition but following their home and away victories, HJK were handed back-to-back defeats by Oulu 2-1 away in the domestic Veikkausliiga and Malmo in the Champions League respectively.
Results at Champions League level have been inconsistent for HJK which includes four wins in their last nine ties overall, but also losing three of these as well.
Malmo Preview – Can Malmo continue winning spurt?
Malmo will make their way over to Finland for this 2nd leg clash against HJK having won five of their last six matches in all competitions which includes a 2-1 win on aggregate over Latvian side, Riga, in the 1st qualifying round of the Champions League.
Domestic wins in the Allsvenskan against Sirius, Degerfors and Mjallby have also been boosted by last week’s 1st leg win against Tuesday’s opponents, HJK, so the Swedish visitors will be in confident mood ahead of this outing.
In addition, Malmo have performed very well in the Champions League in recent times as they’re unbeaten in their last nine Champions League ties overall and they’ll be hard to beat in this return leg as well.
