Malmo vs Hammarby Prediction

Malmo have already sent their statement of intent for the upcoming campaign. The Sky Blue are seemingly ready to defend their league title and their comprehensive opening-day win showed that they intend to continue from where they left off last time out. Henrik Rydström's side have made a six-game unbeaten start to the season and have also booked their spot in the final of the Svenska Cupen, where they will face Djurgarden next month.

Hammarby are the underdogs here but they have held their own in this fixture in recent years. The Stockholm outfit also claimed a comfortable win of their own on the opening day, albeit not as convincing as their hosts.

Barring an unlikely upset, there should only be one winner here. We are backing Malmo to claim a comfortable win with goals to be scored at both ends.

Prediction: Malmo 3-1 Hammarby
