Malmo FF vs Sparta Prague Betting Tips - BTTS

Malmo will be bursting with confidence when they host Sparta on Tuesday with the Swedes securing a famous win against PAOK last week. After a 2:2 draw in Sweden, Henrik Rydström´s side scored a sensational 4:3 win in Greece to seal a 6:5 aggregate victory. 

Likewise, Sparta Prague needed an away victory to secure their safe passage into Wednesday's playoff contest. The Czechs were held to a 1:1 draw in their first leg against FCSB but bounced back with a 3:2 win in Romania sealing their place in the final qualification round. 

With a place in the lucrative, revamped UCL up for grabs, both teams will be desperate to claim the upper hand in Wednesday's first-leg. However, given both teams results in recent weeks, we can expect another rollercoaster tie with plenty of goalmouth action. 

Malmo have been a great bet for goal chasers in recent matches. The Swedish champions have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last ten matches, including each of their last four UCL ties. In fact, a minimum of four goals were scored in their matches against KI and PAOK. 

Similarly, Sparta come into this contest having seen BTTS in each of their last four matches while six of their last nine fixtures saw both teams scoring, and a minimum of three goals scored. 

Considering those outcomes, and the evenly-matched nature of this tie, we can expect another entertaining affair with BTTS the best bet on Wednesday.
