Malmo FF v Chelsea FC: Group H - UEFA Champions League
Helsingborg and Malmo square off on Sunday

Helsingborg and Malmo will go head-to-head at the Olympia Stadium in round 23 of the Swedish Allsvenskan on Sunday.

The visitors have won the last six meetings between the teams since 2016 and will look to march on in the same vein.

Helsingborg returned to winning ways as they saw off Goteborg 3-1 away from home last Monday.

Prior to that, they were on a two-game losing streak in the league, conceding four goals and scoring twice in that time.

With 17 points from 22 games, Helsingborg are currently 14th in the Allsvenskan standings, seven points off Varberg outside the relegation playoff spot.

Elsewhere, Malmo were condemned to a second consecutive defeat in Group D of the Europa League as they were between 3-2 by Union Saint-Gilloise last Thursday.

They have now returned to the Allsvenskan, where they are on a run of one win from their last four games, losing twice and claiming one draw in that time.

With 37 points from 22 games, Malmo are currently sixth in the league standings, but could rise as high as fourth place with all three points this weekend.


Helsingborg vs Malmo Head-To-Head

Malmo boast a superior record in the history of this fixture, claiming 21 wins from the last 41 meetings between the sides. Nine games have ended in draws, while Helsingborg have picked up 11 wins in that time.
