Elfsborg welcome Mjallby to Boras Arena for an Allsvenskan round 15 fixture on Sunday. The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a comfortable 5-2 away victory over Paphos in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League first-round qualification tie on Thursday.

Their hosts were reduced to 10 men following Joao Correia's 15th-minute red card and the visitors broke the deadlock soon after. However, Paphos still went into the break ahead courtesy of Sebastian Homen's own goal and Vlad Dragomir's 43rd-minute strike. Nichael Baidoo, Andri Baldursson, Jalal Abdullai and Arber Zeneli scored second-half goals to complete the rout.

The Yellow Ones will turn their focus back to the league where their last game saw them claim a 5-3 away win over Hacken.

Mjallby, meanwhile, claimed maximum points with a 2-1 home win over Malmo. Elliot Stroud and Jacob Bergstrom scored in either half for the hosts while Tom Pettersson's late own goal halved the deficit.

The victory left them in third spot in the table, having garnered 29 points from 15 games. Elfsborg are fifth with 22 points to their name.
