Malmo FF vs. Halmstads BK Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Malmo FF and Halmstads BK, taking place on Sunday, 18 May 2025, at Eleda Stadion in Malmö.
Malmo FF, Recent Form
Malmo FF manager Henrik Rydström will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against IFK Varnamo. In that game they had 66% possession and managed 18 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to IFK Varnamo who had 8 attempts and 4 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Rydström will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 10 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 8 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
It has been a solid run of home form of late, having gone undefeated in 5 of their last 6 matches at home and clocking up 4 wins along the way.
Lasse Berg Johnsen will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Malmo FF.
Halmstads BK, Recent Form
There will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Halmstads BK players having failed to take any points away from their recent 3-1 home defeat at the hands of GAIS. In that game they recorded 49 % of the possession, with 13 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 6 of their 15 shots on goal.
Johan Lindholm, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 12 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 8 goals scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins.
On an individual basis, Yannick Agnero is on a hot scoring streak recently having scored in each of Halmstads BK's last league game.
