Malmo will host AIK at the Eleda Stadion on Thursday in another round of the 2025 Swedish Allsvenskan campaign. The hosts will be hoping to get a result that could move them closer to the top three early in the season.
Malmo picked up a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Halmstad last weekend to mark their fifth league win of the season after 10 games played. The defending champions have had a slow start to the season, having already lost one game fewer than they did in the entirety of last season, but will look to build on their three-game unbeaten run to move up from fifth place this weekend.
AIK were disappointed not to capitalize on any of their chances in their goalless draw against Hammarby on Sunday, but will be glad to remain the only unbeaten team in the league so far. Gnaget are one point off the top, having won five of their opening six games this campaign, but have won just one of their subsequent four outings and will be keen to return to winning ways this weekend as they seek to end their four-year league title drought.
