Vardar take on the visitors Malmo FF at “Stadion Mladost” in the first-leg clash of the 1/4 stage of the Qualification to the UEFA Champions League 2017/2018. The match will be played in Strumica on Tuesday, July 18th. The first-leg game ended with 1:1 draw.
Including last season’s encounters, Vardar have not been broken since the 26th of April across eight official games. The team won the FYR Macedonia’s First League of 2016/2017 season with 13-point margin. The first-leg match against the Swedes became the first one for the Macedonians in this season and surprisingly they didn’t lose. In regard to the Vardar’s results in front of their supporters, in 2017 the side got eight victories, one draw and one defeat in 10 home encounters.

Sweden’s Allsvenskan is in midstream and after 15 rounds Malmo FF take the lead in the table with 34 points earned. The Swedes’ unbeaten run counts for six matches and covers four triumphs with two draws. In the first-leg clash against Vardar, Malmo FF had great advantage, but didn’t manage to win at the home turf. In 2017 the team conducted eight games on the road recording four victories and four draws without a single loss in them. Malmo FF’s winning streak at away grounds consists of three clashes with 4:1 aggregated score.
Potentially Malmo FF are stronger than the FYR Macedonia’s champion. The Swedes failed to convert their chances at the home field, however, I believe that the Scandinavians’ class and experience should play their favourable part in away fight.
Prediction for the match: Malmo FF to win.
