- Competition: Allsvenskan
- Date: Sunday, 1st June, 2025
- Kickoff: 13:00 UK / 14:00 CEST
- Venue: Eleda Stadion (Malmö)
After Hacken just beat Malmo and won the Svenska Cup title, these teams will once again face off, but this time in the league, again at Eleda Stadion in Malmo.
Malmo have been a dominant team in Sweden in recent years. However, the start of this year did not meet expectations. As we just mentioned, they failed to win their first title by losing the Cup and have won only 19 points in 12 rounds in Allsvenskan. Currently, they are in 5th place, already six points behind the European spots and eight points away from the desired top spot.
Hacken's results continuously declined after they won the title in the 2022 season. Last year, they finished eight and are not doing great this year as well. They are again in the eighth spot with 15 points, four points behind their next opponent, Malmo, although they have played one game less. Still, by winning the Svenska Cupen, they have already secured a spot in the Europa League, a fact that will undoubtedly give them a significant boost in morale.
Malmo vs Hacken pick: Under 2.5 goals
These teams met just a few days ago, and we saw a goalless draw in the regular time. It was a close match, where neither team could break the other's defense. That is not a big surprise because both teams have been solid defensively in recent matches. Malmo allowed one goal in three games before the Cup Finals, while Hacken allowed one goal in two games before the mentioned match.
Additionally, Malmo's offense has struggled in recent matches, failing to score in the last three matches despite creating solid goalscoring chances.
Primarily due to strong defensive performances, these teams were under 2.5 goals in three consecutive games across all competitions.
Considering the previous h2h game, constant low-scoring games lately, and Malmo's offensive struggles, we believe an under 2.5 goals bet should be the best option for this Allsvenskan tie.

Hacken team news
The team is having massive injury problems and could miss up to nine players who missed the previous games - Brice Wembangomo, Leo Vaisanen, Julius Lindberg, Amor Layouni, Jacob Laursen, Zeidane Inoussa, Srdjan Hrstic, Johan Hammar, and Abdoulaye Faye.
Goalkeeper Andreas Linde finally recovered from his hamstring injury and was on the bench for the previous game against Malmo in the Cup. He is their best option on the goal, and we expect him back in the starting lineup.
