Malmo take on the visitors Varnamo in the round 17 match of Swedish Allsvenskan. The match will be played on Monday, July 31st at Eleda Stadion (Malmö).
Something is off with Malmo, and they seem to be stumbling in the championship race. They have been unable to secure a victory in the last 3 matches, earning only 1 point out of 9 possible. The team's attack has faltered in the previous games, with just one goal scored. As for the upcoming match, the bookmakers have quite a bit of confidence in the home team. However, there are two sides to this situation. On one hand, the grand Swedish football club should be able to correct their mistakes and finally win. On the other hand, it's unclear how long this crisis will last. In the last round, Malmo dropped points against a lower-ranked team, playing a goalless draw against AEK. Now, they face Varnamo, who may not seem particularly threatening, but in the last round, they managed to defeat the reigning champions, Hacken, 1-0. So, the outcome of the upcoming battle might not be so straightforward.

Varnamo are not competing for top positions in the Swedish league and currently resides in the top-10 region. The team has been on a decent run, with only one loss in the last 4 matches, and that was against a top-5 team, Yurgarden, with a score of 1-2. As I mentioned before, in the last round, Varnamo surprisingly defeated Hacken, the reigning champions, with a 1-0 victory. It seems that they are not afraid of anyone right now and will continue to act in the same manner. Malmo is currently going through a gaming crisis, and Varnamo could take advantage of this situation.
Naturally, the bookmakers have set a significant difference in the odds, predicting a big victory for the hosts. However, there are reasons to doubt this outcome. Therefore, one can consider a positive handicap bet on the away team. My choice will be to go with the option: Handicap (+2) on Varnamo. Since Malmo is not in the form to defeat anyone by a big margin easily, it's reasonable to assume that if the hosts win, it will be by a maximum of 1-2 goals.
Prediction for the match: Varnamo to win with +2.0 handicap.
