Malmo-Sparta Prague is a match valid for the first leg of the Champions League access playoffs and is played Wednesday at 9 p.m.: lineups, prediction, TV and streaming.
One of the most exciting and spectacular matches of the last round of preliminaries was the one between Swedish side Malmo and Greek champions PAOK. Thrills a go-go in Thessaloniki, with the Scandinavians managing to avoid elimination in full recovery thanks to a Zatterstrom goal, dragging the game into extra time. Then in extra-time, Christiansen scored the decisive goal, the 3-4 goal, which cut the Hellenes’ legs for good (the first leg had ended 2-2).
A magical night for Henrik Rydstrom’s men, still in contention to return to the Champions League that the White and Blue haven’t played in since the 2021-22 season. The midweek commitment, moreover, is not diverting Botheim and his teammates’ attention much more from a league that sees them looking down on everyone after 19 days (9 points ahead of second-placed Hammarby in the Allsvenskan).
Now the final effort against reigning Czech Republic champions Sparta Prague, whose last participation in the Champions League group stage dates back to the 2005-06 season. The team coached by Dane Lars Friis brilliantly passed the first two preliminary rounds, risking a little something only with the Romanians of FCSB, who in the return match came close to a resounding comeback after going down 3-0 in the first half (2-3). On the other hand, illiberal path in the league for Sparta, still with a full score after five days: last Saturday they also surrendered Jablonec, folded 2-1 at home. Particularly inspired was Serbian striker Birmancevic, author of 4 goals and 2 assists in the last five games.

Malmo’s performance at home to PAOK was a real showdown but in our opinion Sparta Prague has something more than the Swedes and should be able to avoid at least defeat. There is a good chance that both teams will score.
