The most successful club in Sweden, Malmö will be looking to maintain their 100% start to the campaign on Saturday afternoon when they welcome one of the new boys Västerås.
Malmö have won three of the last four league titles, but the one that fans will remember most is the 2023 title, which they only won on goal difference ahead of Elfsborg. One of the hosts' biggest strengths last season was their defence, and that has already been highlighted in the new season. Henrik Rydström's side have won all three games so far and finished the last two without conceding.
Västerås were by far the best team in the second division last season, but as always, promoted teams find it difficult to establish themselves in the first division. Kalle Shantha Karlsson's side are yet to pick up a point this season and, worst of all, have failed to score in any of their three games.
Betting Tips Malmo FF vs Västerås SK: Over 2.5 goals
Malmö have been unstoppable in the final third of late. The Blue Ones boast at least two goals from each of their last five outings and just one of those games produced under 2.5 goals.
Västerås have had little or nothing to show defensively in recent months. Indeed, the visitors enter this weekend’s clash with a run of twelve consecutive games without a clean sheet. Averagely three goals per game were seen in the six away games played in that spell.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Malmo FF vs Västerås SK prediction: 3-0

Malmo FF team news
Malmo didn’t register any injuries in the 4-0 win voer Varnamo earlier this week, so it won’t be a surprise if head coach Henrik Rydström maintains his XI.
Isaac Kiese Thelin is the club’s top scorer this season with four goals and should continue to lead the line, while Erik Botheim is also expected to retain his number 10 role.
Daníel Gudjohnsen and Oscar Lewicki will not be available for Saturday’s game due to back and cruciate ligament injuries.

Västerås SK team news
Despite going home without a single point against Halmstad last weekend, Västerås had one of their best performances of the season so far.
Kalle Shantha Karlsson’s side had 75% of the ball, registering five shots on goals, so we might see the same starting against Malmo on Saturday.
