The 2022 Allsvenskan campaign continues this weekend and will see Norrkoping host Malmo at the PlatinumCars Arena on Saturday in the 14th round of the Swedish top-flight.
Norrkoping have struggled for form of late and now find themselves in the bottom half of the league table. They were held to a 1-1 draw by struggling Degerforfs in their last game, conceding a late goal after seemingly being set to come away with all three points.
The hosts sit 11th in the league table with 16 points from 13 games. They will be looking to return to winning ways this weekend to move up the table.
Malmo have bounced back from their shock 2-1 defeat to GIF Sundsvall earlier this month and are now enjoying a good run of form. They beat Varberg 3-0 in their last league outing via strikes from Jo Inge Berget, Anders Christiansen and Veljko Birmancevic.
The visitors have picked up 24 points from 14 games and sit fourth in the league table. They will aim to continue their strong run on Saturday as they target a third straight league title.

Norrkoping are on a five-game winless run in the league and six across all competitions. They have one of the worst away records in the league this season and could struggle here.
Malmo are on a three-game unbeaten run and have lost just one of their last eight games across all competitions. They are clear favorites for this one and should come out on top.
