Sparta Prague and Malmo FF had a great run in the Champions League qualifications this summer. However, only one team will find their place in the elite European competitions. In the first leg, the teams were pretty even, but Sparta Prague's efficiency was enough for a big advantage ahead of the second game.
Sparta Prague have been in phenomenal form since the season started, as they recorded nine wins and two draws in 11 matches in all competitions. The second draw came on Saturday when Sparta Prague played 2-2 at home against Slovacko. The head coach, Lars Friis, used that game to rest most of the starters from the game against Malmo FF, so Sparta struggled to break well-organized Slovacko's defense for most of the match.
Malmo FF have had some problems with form lately, as they have won only three of the last eight matches in all competitions. In the previous game, Malmo FF played 2-2 on the road against Kalmar. The head coach, Henrik Rydstrom, used that match to rest some of the starters, but Malmo FF was still a much better side and deserved all three points.
Sparta Prague vs Malmo FF pick: Over 2.5 goals
Sparta Prague has a 2-0 advantage from the first leg, and we should anticipate Malmo FF with an attacking formation from the start. On the other hand, Sparta Prague have Lukas Haraslin and Veljko Birmancevic as excellent counter-attack players, so we should expect at least three goals in the upcoming tie in Prague.

Sparta Prague team news
Sparta Prague didn't win on Saturday against Slovacko, but the head coach, Lars Friis, wasn't completely disappointed. He said, "We didn't have that quality and movement. But we didn't convert the chances; after all, we had about seventeen shots. Sometimes, you score four goals from four chances. However, it is good that we are getting opportunities; we can fix it. But we created enough chances."
Imanol Garcia, Roman Mokrovics, and David Pavelka are injured and will not play in the upcoming game against Malmo FF.

Malmo FF team news
After a 2-2 draw for the weekend against Kalmar, the head coach, Henrik Rydstrom, was frustrated. He said, "From minute 35 until a bit into the second half, we don't have the mentality you need to have to win the Allsvenskan. Because then we are satisfied, and instead of going 2-0 and closing the game completely, we get comfortable, stop taking runs, and don't run enough in the press game. If you are a damn mature team and mature player, you know that you have to keep pushing and pushing for 90 minutes. We need to become even more mature."
Anton Tinnerholm, Niklas Moisander, Oscar Lewicki, and Stefano Holmquist Vecchia are injured and will not play on Tuesday in Prague.
